The last large category isFiltration medium, which are the materials used for the purposes of purification and filtration.
Sandstone
Sandstone.
This is the basic mineral, which you will mainly use to construct your base.
It is always located somewhere around your starting point.
It usually occurs in very large quantities, above 1000kg per field.
It is not very durable, but building with it causes a small increase in decor.
Granite
Granite.
This is a more durable building material, and also a more appealing one.
It has as much as 80 points of hardness.
Its bonus to decor is also greater than it is for sandstone.
Igneous Rock
Igneous Rock.
A throw in of material created from congealed magma.
you’re free to use it for the purposes of construction.
It can be found around locations with magma, usually at the bottom of the asteroid.
These areas are most often extremely hot, so be careful.
Obsidian
Obsidian.
A medium strength rock when it comes to e.g.
However, it will still do its job.
Interestingly, it has a very high melting point, as much as 2500 degrees.
It occurs in the neighbourhood of granite, usually near the Toxic biome.
Sedimentary Rock
Sedimentary Rock.

It occurs alongside other organic resources.
Since it is only a bit harder than sand, it has one of the lowest hardness statistics possible.
Still, you’ve got the option to use this rock as a building material.
Cooper Ore
Copper Ore. One of the most precious metals and resources that you will need.
It occurs only within the starting area, similarly to sandstone.
It usually surrounds a vacuum bubble.
You will mainly use it to produce electricity.
Iron Ore
Iron Ore - ruda zelaza.
Another metal, that will become a substitute for copper ore.
It has similar properties to the mentioned copper, but it has wider use in the industrial area.
Like any metal, you will use it for the construction of machinery and electrical systems.
Gold Amalgam
Gold Amalgam.
It is simply gold, but not yet in its pure form.
It only occurs in the toxic biome, that is also whereSlimeorAlgaeappear.
Wolframite
Wolframite - The material is very resistant to high temperatures.
You’ll find it only in the cold biome.
It is classified as a metal, which means you might use it to build structures or power grids.
Ice
Ice - frozen water in solid state.
you’re free to either freeze the water yourself or find it as ice in the cold biome.
Snow - a lighter from of ice, which can be melted to obtain water.
Snow can be found in the cold, blue biome.
It displays similar physical properties to sand.
Dirt
Dirt.
A soft, light material.
Very important for novice research and essential for setting up your first crop fields.
It is usually found in the vicinity of sand and sandstone, and also in caves with algae.
Sometimes, it can also be found close to volcanic areas.
Clay
Clay.
A material created from earth at high temperatures.
For this very reason, you’re free to only find it in very hot areas.
Algae
Algae is a very import ant organic resource.
It is required for creating oxygen.
you could obtain it from Slime or dig it like other resources.
Fertilizer
Fertilizer.
A resource required so you can sow some of the plants.
Essential when upgrading your fields to achieve better crops.
It occurs only in the starting area and around water tanks, in small quantities.
It can also be obtained by processing other raw materials, e.g.
by processing contaminated dirt from the outhouse in the compost.
Phosphorite
Phosphorite - it’s a mix of sedimentary rocks with various phosphorous compounds.
It’s easiest to find near the hot biome.
you might use it as fertilizer for some plants, e.g.pincha pepperplant.
Slime
Slime - mainly encountered in green biome, but appears in other biomes as well.
A material that is quite common and useful.
After cleaning the mud, we receive algae that can be used to produce oxygen.
Slime produces contaminated air and is home to Slimmelung bacteries that can infect the duplicants.
Coal
Coal - a resource used to produce energy.
Can be changed into electricity in a Coal Generator.
Coal is a rare resource, sometimes encountered next to copper ore and near hot magma tiles.
Oxylite
Oxylite.
A special ore that emits oxygen.
Each block of Oxylite has a specific life span that it loses as it emits oxygen.
Bleach Stone
Bleach Stone.
An unusual rock, which emits chlorine.
It is necessary if you want your duplicates to have clean hands.
It is always present in a formation of a round cave full of chlorine and chaotically dispersed rock.
It most often occurs in the purple biome, much less frequently in the toxic biome.
Sand
Sand.
Be careful when you are building in its vicinity.
It only occurs in the starting location, between other rocks.
Abyssalite
Abyssalite.
A mysterious mineral that is attached to the special category.
So far, there is no machine that can use it, although it is possible to extract it.
One interesting fact is, that its temperature is the absolute zero!
This is the coldest thing you will ever encounter (next to the vacuum).
It does not conduct heat.
It always separates the toxic biome from the purple biome, creating unique caves.
Perfect for constructing basic base tiles to insulate rooms.
Neutronium
Neutronium.
Another mysterious mineral that sets the border, beyond which you cannot expand further.
At the bottom of the map, it is often filled with magma tanks.
Its temperature is the absolute zero, and its density cannot be measured.
You are not getting through this thing.
