Gathering Teranium Ore and Seabed Salvage

Finding Safe Mining Zones

Before diving into hostile trenches, look for calmer ocean biomes where you can mine with fewer interruptions. The Kelp Field is a calm green biome featuring giant kelp and Teranium stone craters, making it an ideal starting spot to gather Teranium Ore along the seabed. If you want a quiet place to set up an underwater outpost, search for a Dark Rock Field, a peaceful boulder-strewn zone with very few threats. Once you have reliable underwater breathing gear, move into the deeper Rocky Ocean to mine the Teranium deposits scattered around its rough stone spires and pillars.

Gathering Salvage on the Sea Floor

You do not need to swim back to land every time your tools break or you run out of wood. Keep an eye out for wood piles resting directly on the ocean floor.

1. Swim down to any wood pile on the seabed and break it.

2. Collect the dropped sticks, logs, gold nuggets, and assorted items.

3. Use the salvaged wood at a crafting table to make fresh pickaxes, chests, or torches while staying submerged.

4. Check your in-game recipe book to turn your mined Teranium Ore into survival gear or over fifty decorative blocks, stairs, and slabs for your base.
