Silver Ore (Subnautica)
Silver Ore is a raw material found by breaking Sandstone Outcrops or by harvesting Barnacles. It is a conductive material that is required for making a number of electronics. Silver Ore can also be found as a large resource deposit, which can be easier to find than Sandstone and yield more resources. Said large deposits are commonly found in the Lost River and Dunes biomes.
