Ores

From Dwarves! - Minecraft Roleplaying Server

Ores are lumps of rock that are rich in metallic components. These ores are then processed in order to turn them into pure metals. In real-life, this could be a mixture of crushing them, combining them with other materials, or simply smelting them.

Properties And Uses

Each ore will turn into a 'base metal' when it is smelted. This is done by Smiths using their Smelt or Mass Smelt skills.

The metals can then be further alloyed, or turned into weapons and armour.
