  • Lead Ore: Found between Y=-60 and Y=40. Often found alongside Silver. Used for radiation shielding and Enderium.
  • Silver Ore: Found between Y=-60 and Y=40. Used for high-conductivity alloys like Signalum.
  • Nickel Ore: Found between Y=-40 and Y=120. Used for Invar and Constantan.

Mineral Resources
