Iron Ore

Iron Ore

Iron Ore is an early-game resource used in metalworking in Medieval Engineers. It is, currently, the only ore available in the planet. Most of its applications require it to be refined into File:IronIngot.png Iron Ingots using a  Furnace.

Prior to researching  Metal Hardening, the Wooden Shovel is the only way a player has to obtain Iron Ores. For this, he must locate a poor yield, where the terrain is soft enough for the shovel to operate. After doing the research, crafting a  Pickaxe makes exploring other types of yields possible.

Occurrence

The indicator for an iron deposit is a yellow/red grass texture.

Iron ore occurs in three different variations which can only be found underground.
