The Planet Crafter is the game all those who wish to go to Mars can finally play. You go to a desert filled planet, and your job is to terraform that planet and make it a habitable paradise. However, to do that, you first need to get plenty of resources so you can make technology to enable the terraforming process. One of the ways you get terraforming materials is via Planet Crafter’s Ore Extractor. Throughout the playable map, you will find that there are plenty of biomes and areas with different resources. This guide will teach you all about the Planet Crafter Ore Extractor Locations, helping you to make your wannabee martian paradise.

Planet Crafter Ore Extractor Locations

In total, there are six different Planet Crafter Ores you can extract (at the moment). For the most part, you only need a T1 Extractor to begin mining. However, Uranium, Super Alloy and Osmium require T2 Extractors to work. Keep this in mind when looking to make Ore Extractors in the following locations:

Also, do be warned that drills ore extractors don’t just pick up the resource in the area. There tends to be a lot of ore that can be drilled, so try to return to it often and sort the inventory of the drill out.

Aluminium

Aluminium is one of the only resources that don’t require odd conditions to be met. You need to build an ore extractor near large grey boulders, and you can start extracting the resource as easily as possible. You may get quite a bit of iron as well as other generic rocks you find on the floor. You can find this biome to the west side of the sand fall cave, marked with the giant boulders sticking out of the barren lands

Iridium

Iridium is inside the orange sandy cave, which is located under the mountain with the sand falling off it. Note, you probably want to set up a base around here, as this section of the map leads to plenty of different biomes, including the sulpher, super alloy and more.

Osmium

Osmium is in very specific locations, particularly found in specific Osmidium caves. These are identified with their blue glow in certain areas, and the blue quartz you can see hanging from walls and the roof of the caves they are in. There is a massive Osmium cave in the sulfur biome, next to the ice cave for that matter around 752:65. There’s also one in a cave right above the crashed ship that is on top of the hill above the starting shuttle. However, it is filled with ice and needs to reach a certain temperature before you can access it, making the first one we mentioned the most reliable.

Sulfur

Sulfur is the element that produces the strange smells. So, how fitting it is to find the location of the ore in the gas-filled biome. Build an extractor anywhere in the gas biome and you should start reliably producing sulfur from it. You can typically find the Sulpher location around the area of the sand falling cave. You can find the gas biome around 752:65.

Super Alloy

The Super Alloy ore extractor location is in a specific location near the Iridium sand fall cave. For this one, you tacking it with coordinates is easier, with 1065:65:1700. You can find your coordinates at the bottom left of the game screen. It should be in a cave near a valley in the mountain that leads directly to the gas biome.

Uranium

Uranium is another tricky one to find, thanks to its specific location. You need to head to the area with grass and several rocks spiralling into the sky. From then on, follow a path, that should lead you to the 580:35:-655 coordinates. The ore is inside.
