'''''Ores''''' are used to build ships. To obtain raw Ore, players must use a [[:Category:Miner|Miner-class]] ship like the [[Wasp]]. [[Mining]] allows the raw Ore to be dumped and "refined" at the [[Mega Base]] or any faction [[Starbase]] or planet, giving the player [[Credits]] in return. Ore also has mass (measured in meters cubed), which, in Galaxy, is a measurement of how much space the Ore will take up in a ship's Ore Hold, Cargo Hold, or in a player's [[Warehouse]]. This is something to keep in mind when Trading or Mining because it can affect the amount of money players make. Based on the amount (mass) of ore sold and the value of the Ore at the [[Starbase]], players can make quite a profit through [[Trading]] and [[Mining]] Ores. Below in the "List of Ores" there are the masses of the Ore as listed by the [[Mega Base]]. Each Ore mined spawns a new Ore somewhere in the server. All ships excluding the [[Wasp]] and [[Wyrm]] require at least some Silicate, Carbon, and Iridium. Higher tier ships require Adamantite, Quantium, Titanium, and Palladium as well as Silicate, Carbon, and Iridium. The newest Ore in Galaxy is Uranium, which has a yellow-green glow to it. It was added during the Rogue One Star Wars Event and spawns around the [[Derelict Station]] and planets like [[Frion I]] or [[Myriad III]]. Uranium, though previously used only for special cases, is now used to build almost every ship. Uranium was previously traded in exchange for one Weapons Part, which in turn enabled players to build the [[Prototype X-1]] and [[Prototype X-2]]. Ores can spawn 180-200 studs large.

The word "Materials" usually refers to the ''refined'' version of Ores, which is the kind that players buy and sell at Starbases and the kind of Ore that goes into a ship's Cargo Hold or a player's [[Warehouse]]. Sector ores such as Titanium, Palladium, Quantium, and Adamantite spawn randomly but in high frequencies in corners of the map, for instance Palladium in the top left Quantium in the bottom left etc. The corners where the sector ore spawns is random and not set.

There are two ways to refine mined ores: Selling (You give the starbase the ores and you get credits in exchange) and Transferring (The starbase refines the ores and gives you a portion of said ores). The payout increases with higher loyalty:
