Resources can be stored on Cargo Pallets or in the Vault. Resources are used to manufacture other items in the Refinery or Assembling Machine. They can also be used as fuel, in-space objects, or as trade goods. There are several different types of resources that are all defined below.

Raw Resources

Raw Resources are mined from asteroid fields by using Resource Extractors. They are stored in containment crates which can be then stored on pallets in your ship or in the vault at a base.

The following table lists the raw resources in the game, where they can be found, their rarity and how many can be stored per containment crate. Any raw resources that can be used without being refined are linked to the resource pages that show you how they can be used.

Refined Resources

	Iron Ore	Rock asteroids	Common	600 per crate	Iron
	Copper Ore	Rock asteroids	Common	600 per crate	Copper, Brass
	Silicon Ore	Rock asteroids	Uncommon	600 per crate	Silicon
	Zinc Ore	Rock asteroids	Rare	600 per crate	Brass
	Water	Ice asteroids	Common	1,000 per crate	Hydrogen, Oxygen, Deuterium
	Nitrogen	Ice asteroids	Rare	600 per crate	Nitrous Oxide, Xanthium, Di-Xanthium, Tetra-Xanthium

Refined Resources

Refined resources are created by putting raw resources in a Refinery. For specific usage of these items other than crafting please click the item link below.

Refined Resources
Icon	Resource	Made With	Quantity	Used In/For	Crate Icon
	Iron	Iron Ore	600 per crate	Steel, Beacon, Defense Drone, Standard Shell, ship components
	Steel	Iron, Carbon	600 per crate	Advanced ship components
	Copper	Copper Ore	600 per crate	Ship components
	Hydrogen	Water	2,000 per crate	Fuel source
	Oxygen	Water	1,000 per crate	Nitrous Oxide, used in life support systems
	Nitrous Oxide	Nitrogen, Oxygen	600 per crate	Standard Ammo
	Silicon	Silicon Ore	600 per crate	Chipsets, Cartridges, Advanced ship components
	Brass	Copper Ore, Zinc Ore	600 per crate	Standard Shell
	Xanthium	Nitrogen, Deuterium, Beryllium	1,000 per crate	Rift drive fuel
	Di-Xanthium	Xanthium, Nitrogen, Mercury	1,000 per crate	Rift drive fuel
	Tetra-Xanthium	Di-Xanthium, Nitrogen, Osmium	1,000 per crate	Rift drive fuel

Manufactured Resources

Manufactured resources are created in an Assembling Machine.

Manufactured Resources
Icon	Resource	Quantity	Made With	Crate Icon
	Beacon	1 per crate	Iron, Copper, Silicon
	Defense Drone	1 per crate	Iron, Copper, Brass
	Standard Shell	1,200 per crate	Iron, Brass
	Standard Ammo	1,200 per crate	Standard Shell, Nitrous Oxide

Scrap Resources

Scrap resources can be salvaged from wrecks or from deconstructing ships. Scrap resources can be put in a Refinery to make usable resources.

NOTE: Copper Scrap will be made only into Copper not Copper Ore and therefore cannot be used to make Brass.

Refined Resources
Icon	Resource	Quantity	Makes	Crate Icon
	Iron Scrap	600 per bundle	Iron
	Copper Scrap	600 per bundle	Copper
	Silicon Scrap	600 per bundle	Silicon
	Zinc Scrap	600 per bundle	Zinc Ore
	Carbon Scrap	600 per bundle	Carbon
	Steel Scrap	600 per bundle	Steel
	Brass Scrap	600 per bundle	Brass

Other Resources

Other Resources
