Summary

Iron Ore is one of the core basic natural resources. Found commonly throughout the galaxy, it can be harvested and processed on almost any rocky planet. Iron is often used as a structural material, both its strength and ability to be alloyed with other materials making it useful in that regard.

It is mined with the Mining Machine.

It is smelted into Iron Ingots and Magnets.
