Tin Ore

Checked 2026-11-05 · Lightyear Frontier 1.0

Tin Ore supports the bronze technology chain. The destination is a Furnace with both tin and copper available, rather than a machine that converts tin into a standalone progression shortcut. Frostpeak Ridge is the location in the older Fandom entry. Country Roads also added small deposits, so an old guide showing only large formations can miss a valid gathering option. The extra-ore chance belongs to that dated small-deposit change; it is not a guaranteed extra item on every hit. For an ongoing production route, distinguish carrying ore home from extracting extra daily minerals beside a deposit. The extractor page explains that separate building.
