Ore will not spawn if it attempts to spawn over any block not listed below. Note however, that the above table assumes that all the ore actually replaces blocks. Instead, a table of 'good luck' vein amounts and 'bad luck' vein amounts is shown below. As the generation of each vein is heavily randomized, it is difficult to give exact high and low values from 'optimal' veins. The amount of altars smashed does not affect the size of ore veins, only the amount. All Hardmode ores will avoid spawning in the outer tiles of the world. If altars were to be destroyed in one world, all following altars would only spawn one ore vein. The table below visualizes this and shows how many ore veins will be spawned for each altar destroyed. The amount of ore veins generated upon destroying an altar is determined by the following formula. They will spawn at random locations in varying quantity, in places explored and unexplored alike.

Players will be able to find these new ores scattered across the Underground layer to near- Underworld levels, with them replacing most blocks created during world generation. Neither ores are affected by destroyed altars. Hardmode ore types are chosen at random as soon as the player destroys an Altar.Ĭhlorophyte Ore spawns on its own once Hardmode is triggered, though it cannot be mined before killing all of the Mechanical bossesand Luminite does not occur naturally. The alternate ore types that do not generate naturally in a world, but can be obtained by other means, such as Cratesbonus dropsSlime drops, or loot from an Extractinator. An Extractinator and Wooden Crates from fishing also provide ores as random rewards.Ī world will generally only contain one ore type from each tier, which is chosen at random, for instance one world may have Copper and Iron Oreswhile another may have Copper and Lead Ores see tables below. Lower-tier ores can be found among Dirt near the surfaceor within Floating Islands. Ores are generally found as veins of placed blocks in the Underground layer and below, and are mined with a pickaxe or drill. Raw ores can also be used as plain blocks for construction. Some items require raw ores themselves, most commonly bricks and potions. They generally must be crafted into bars at a Furnaceafter which they can craft several essential toolsweaponsarmorand other items. Ores are primary crafting materials necessary for game progress.
