Ores

18 bytes added, 16:11, 8 November 2019
'''Ores''' are rocks or sediments which contain useful quantities of minerals. Ores are extracted through [[Mining|mining]] and are refined through various processes in order to obtain [[Valuables|valuable metals or gemstones]]. Player characters can find ores at random in the UA, but the easiest way to acquire ores is to mine them.
Ore items are called '''ore bundles''', which may be one of many different types (each type having a different composition) and be of varying mass (expressed in grams), which in turn determines the item's Weight(in Weight units).
On their own, ores don't have any uses to the player; they cannot be used for anything directly, nor are they part of any [[crafting]] recipes. Their only real purpose is to be exchanged at a mining facility's '''ore bank'''. Depending on the composition and amount delivered, a player character may exchange ore for metal ingots, gemstones, or directly to cash.
