− | {{av}}{ | + | {{av}}{fine}} |
− | '''Ores''' are | + | '''Ores''' are a type of {{l|stone}} that can be used to create {{l|bar}}s of pure {{l|metal}}s and {{l|alloy}}s at the {{l|smelter}}. Many ores are quite valuable as mined, and a {{l|mason}} or {{l|stone crafter}} can work them the same as any stone. However, ores fall into the {{l|economic stone}} category, and so must be designated for non-restricted use in the {{l|z-stone}} menu. Others can be combined when initially smelted into alloys, while others must first be made into bars of pure metal and then ''those'' combined to create the desired alloy. |
− | All ores are | + | All ores are {{l|fire-safe}} material. Some are also {{l|magma-safe}}. |
− | Note that in some cases ore | + | Note that in some cases ore {{l|value#material value|value}} (given below) and {{l|metal}} value are not the same (Bismuth, Iron ores). Alloys, too, often have a higher value than the ores/metals they are made of. In most cases furniture made from the ore is as valuable as furniture made from a pure (non-alloy) metal, while requiring one-third the raw materials and significantly less processing. |
− | Metal ores with two possible metals listed below always create the first metal when | + | Metal ores with two possible metals listed below always create the first metal when {{l|smelting}}, but have a chance of creating the second metal as well. Different rules apply to creating alloys. |
− | Nearly all unmined ores are represented by the {{Raw Tile|£| | + | Nearly all unmined ores are represented by the {{Raw Tile|£|#FFF|#000}} symbol. Exceptions are native aluminum, bismuthinite, and magnetite (which appear as {{Raw Tile|^|#FFF|#000}}, {{Raw Tile|%|#FFF|#000}}, and {{Raw Tile|~|#FFF|#000}}, respectively), as well as cinnabar and cobaltite (which appear as {{Raw Tile|£|#FFF|#000}} but cannot be refined into mercury or cobalt as they would be in real life). |
