Wikipedia article

This article is about an older version of DF.

Tetrahedrite is the most versatile Template:L in the game. It is an ore of both Template:L and Template:L, and is found as veins in any Template:L.

When Template:L, tetrahedrite always produces a copper Template:L, with a 20% chance of producing a silver bar to go with it. It can also be used in the creation of no less than six different alloys at a Template:L: Template:L, Template:L, Template:L, Template:L, Template:L, and Template:L. However, there are special caveats in each case:

  • If tetrahedrite is used to create bronze, brass, trifle pewter, or fine pewter, no silver bar is created, just as if Template:L or Template:L had been used.
  • Since tetrahedrite is considered an ore of silver, it can be used in the creation of electrum just as easily as Template:L. While it will not produce a copper bar during such a reaction, it can still be worthwhile to use it this way due to copper having such a low value.
  • Finally, billon may be created using nothing but tetrahedrite. Due to what may be a bug, one chunk of tetrahedrite will produce two bars of billon. This makes it by far the most Template:L reaction with tetrahedrite.

Smelting

Tetrahedrite can be used to make a wide range of Template:L at a Template:L:

  • Copper bars, with a 20% chance of an additional silver bar
  • Billon bars (best value)
  • Brass bars - with Template:L
  • Bronze bars - with Template:L
  • Trifle pewter bars - with 2 cassiterite
  • Fine pewter bars - with 3 cassiterite
  • Electrum bars - with gold nuggets
