== The Colored Ore Hierarchy ==
'''Ores and Ingots in Ultima Online: Renaissance''' form the lifeblood of Britannia's blacksmithing economy. Discovered in mountain cliffs and subterranean caves using [[Mining]], high-tier ores produce exceptional armor and weapons with heightened physical defense and extraordinary durability.

=== Mining and Smelting Rules ===
* Mining high-tier veins requires elevated skill levels. Attempting to extract advanced minerals without sufficient skill yields standard iron.
* Smelting raw ore chunks at a forge carries a risk of loss. Miners with higher skill retain higher percentages of refined ingots.
* Smelting smaller 2-ore stacks or using a fire beetle minimizes ore destruction on challenging veins.
