Resources are used for Slime Science. They can be found using various Extractors such as Drills, Pumps and Apiaries. Rare resources like the Royal Jelly can also be found within the Range Exchange as a reward sometimes. For extracting rare resources, put the extractor somewhere with a smaller resource pool for higher chance of obtaining these rare slime science materials.

Drill Resources

These resources are obtained using drills. They can be obtained from any location on the Far, Far Range, with the exception of Indigonium, which is exclusive to The Indigo Quarry.

Jellystone


Jellystone is a common resource obtained with a drill.

Jellystone is a semi-hardened mixture of minerals and slime, possibly resulting from plorts sinking back to into the earth below. Because of its solid texture, it's a favorite stone for sculptors.

On the Ranch:
Deposit jellystone into the Lab's refinery where it can be used for crafting Slime Science gadgets.


Slime Fossil


Slime fossils are an uncommon resource obtained with a drill.

Prized for the ancient minerals they contain, slime fossils are like nature capturing a moment in time. Specifically, that moment seems to be when a great avalanche or mudslide occured and a slime was totally cool with it.

On the Ranch:
Deposit slime fossils into the Lab's refinery where it can be used for crafting Slime Science gadgets.


Indigonium


Indigonium is a common resource exclusive to the Indigo Quarry, obtained with a drill.

Indigonium is the ore that gives the Indigo Quarry it's name. There's a little indigonium found in every inch of the quarry, but the purest ore is only found deep underground.

On the Ranch:
Deposit indigonium into the Lab's refinery where it can be used for crafting Slime Science gadgets.


Strange Diamond


Strange diamonds are a rare resource obtained with a drill.

Even in the dark, these diamonds seem to shine as if light is passing through them. Strange diamonds are highly valued for their use in a variety of warp tech processes. Being almost impossibly dense and intricate in their composition, a strange diamond can reflect light within itself so profoundly that it actually bends time.

On the Ranch:
Deposit strange diamonds into the Lab's refinery where it can be used for crafting Slime Science gadgets.


Pump Resources

These resources are obtained using pumps. They can be obtained from any location on the Far, Far Range, with the exception of Deep Brine, which is exclusive to The Dry Reef.

Primordy Oil


Primordy oil is a common resource obtained with a pump.

Found deep below the surface of the Far, Far Range, primordy oil is an ancient substance containing a wide array of organic compounds, making it perfect as a base for many Slime Science creations.

On the Ranch:
Deposit primordy oil into the Lab's refinery where it can be used for crafting Slime Science gadgets.


Spiral Steam


Spiral steam is an uncommon resource obtained with a pump.

Found in highly pressurized vacuums of rock below the surface, spiral steam exhibits a curious behavior when released into the atmosphere, swirling into a series of dancing spirals before dissipating. It is valued for the countless micro-particles found within the steam itself.

On the Ranch:
Deposit spiral steam into the Lab's refinery where it can be used for crafting Slime Science gadgets.


Deep Brine


Deep brine is a common resource exclusive to the Dry Reef, obtained with a pump.

Not safe for drinking, the deep brine is thought to be water from slime sea that has been filtered by the subterranean coral of the Dry Reef. It is significantly denser than fresh water and loaded with salt.

On the Ranch:
Deposit deep brine into the Lab's refinery where it can be used for crafting Slime Science gadgets.


Lava Dust


Lava dust is a rare resource obtained with a pump.

Neither a solid or a liquid, lava dust seems to be something in between, having the characteristics of both. It is believed to be a mixture of magma and slime, though this has never been proven. And despite its name, lava dust is only warm to the touch.


On the Ranch:
Deposit lava dust into the Lab's refinery where it can be used for crafting Slime Science gadgets.


Apiary Resources

These resources are obtained using apiaries. They can be obtained from any location on the Far, Far Range, with the exception of Wild Honey, which is exclusive to The Moss Blanket.

Buzz Wax


Buzz wax is a common resource obtained with an apiary.

Just like bees on earth, bees on the Far, Far Range produce a waxy substance that they use to form their hives. Buzz wax is still malleable deposits of unused wax found in apiaries. It has many practical uses ranging from building materials to medicines. You can also chew it as the worst gum in the world.

On the Ranch:
Deposit buzz wax into the Lab's refinery where it can be used for crafting Slime Science gadgets.


Hexacomb


Hexacomb is an uncommon resource obtained with an apiary.

Hexacomb is the results of bees arranging buzz wax into complex patterns to store their honey and eggs. Why the hexagonal shape? Bees understand that the hexagon is the shape of the future. Bees were Sci-Fi before it was cool.

On the Ranch:
Deposit hexacomb into the Lab's refinery where it can be used for crafting Slime Science gadgets.


Wild Honey


Wild honey is a common resource exclusive to the Moss Blanket, obtained with an apiary.

All the rich pollens and sweet nectars found in the Moss Blanket combine in beautiful alchemy to form some of the most delicious honey in the galaxy. Wild honey is a staple of rancher life; a dollop of it makes just about any food taste better, and it provides a natural boost in energy to get through a tough day of wrangling slimes.

On the Ranch:
Deposit wild honey into the Lab's refinery where it can be used for crafting Slime Science gadgets.


Royal Jelly


Royal jelly is a rare resource obtained with an apiary.

The royal jelly found in the hives across the Far, Far Range is special as it is unnaturally sweet compared to other varieties. It's believed that this is a result of bees collecting small deposits of slime from honey slimes and working it into their royal jelly mixture. If a rancher is lucky enough to acquire some, they'll find its unique properties are very valuable in certain Slime Science endeavors.

On the Ranch:
Deposit royal jelly into the Lab's refinery where it can be used for crafting Slime Science gadgets.
