Ores

Frackin' Ores
There are various ores added to the universe by Frackin' Universe, each one having several interesting and unique purposes once refined, such as forming the base for ultra-strong alloys for weapons and armor manufacturing, others being useful as exotic energy sources to power starships and various advanced technologies, or even serve as catalysts to fuel strange chemical reactions and genetic manipulations.
