Azurite: confirmed name, unknown mechanics
Azurite appears in the official description as an example of the hidden ores players can discover. That makes the name safe to publish, but it does not establish a tier, location, price, or use. This page therefore treats Azurite as a verified entity with an incomplete record. A later update can add its planet, mining requirement, value, and purpose only after those details are visible in the current game or published by the creator. Keeping those fields blank is more useful than copying details from a similarly named mining game.
Aurum: a second verified ore lead
Aurum is listed beside Azurite, which confirms that Mine a Planet has more than one named ore. The public text still does not say whether Aurum is rarer, more valuable, or tied to a later planet. The name resembles the Latin word for gold, but that association is not evidence for an in-game price or effect. We will not infer a gold tier, a crafting recipe, or a sell value from the name alone. Players should check current in-game labels before making an upgrade or farming decision.
How an ore comparison will be built
A future ore table should answer a real progression decision: where an ore appears, how long it takes to obtain under stated fleet conditions, what it unlocks or sells for, and whether a different planet provides a better return. Tests need the same drone setup, power, speed, cargo capacity, and planet stage. Without those controls, a fast result may reflect stronger upgrades rather than a better ore. Source dates also matter because the experience is in beta and its title has changed during the research window.
