- Ore is a raw unrefined material that can be obtained through mining nodes, however it can also be obtained via salvaging items.
- Ores can be refined into ingots.
- Ore will appear on the minimap as the icon. Hovering your cursor over the icon will show the type of ore and kind of node.
Ore vein[edit]
Ore veins are scattered throughout all Tyria. Mining a node requires the respective gathering tool. Once a player interacts with the ore, they will enter a mining animation and receive ore every time the node is hit.
Rich Ore Veins are a special type of node. Rich Veins can be mined ten times as opposed to three and have a greater chance to give gemstones.[citation needed]
