Since you are going to need a variety of resources to craft essential things in the game, it is important to collect as many resources as you can in Core Keeper. Tin ore is one of the newly added essentials that you can use to craft various items. These items are such as shields, weapons, and crafting benches. In this guide, we are going to take a look at how to find tin ore in Core Keeper 1.0. So, let’s begin and take a look at all the locations where you can get tin ore and what you can craft with it.
How to Find Tin Ore
Tin Ore can be found in the Clay Caves biome, which was introduced in patch 0.5.0.1. To reach this habitat, you must first build a bridge from the Dirt biome.
Once in the Clay Caves biome, look for sparkling gray or silver objects lodged in the walls. Then use your Copper Pickaxe to mine the ore. Note that the Clay Caves location is rich in Tin Ore. Therefore extra copper pickaxes are required if you are cultivating this resource.
Along with tin ore, there are a lot of new loots you can get in the game as well. So make sure to check out our all loot drop locations guide as well.
