How to Extract Raw Liquid Ores from Mineral Geysers
Locating Geysers and Setting Up the Pylon
To begin industrial metal gathering, explore the Overworld or the Nether to locate naturally spawned mineral geysers. These geyser vents act as renewable sources for molten minerals, including Crimsite, Veridium, Ochrum, and Scorchia.
Once you have discovered a geyser site, place a Fracking Pylon directly over the geyser opening to begin preparing the extraction site.
Supplying Water and Rotational Power
The Fracking Pylon requires two continuous inputs to operate:
1. Connect rotational shafts or cogs to deliver kinetic power to the Fracking Pylon.
2. Pipe a continuous water supply directly into the pylon.
Once kinetic power and water are supplied, the Fracking Pylon activates and extracts liquid ore from the underground reservoir. Connect fluid pipes or an Advanced Pump to the output port of the Fracking Pylon to route the extracted molten mineral streams toward your processing buildings, vertical Mechanical Fluid Sieves, or Fluid Refineries.
