Tungsten is a semi-common heavy metal element that can be found deep underground. It is glossy black in color. Despite not being able to be used for tools due to it being so heavy and brittle, its immense hardness, temperature resistance, and corrosion resistance make it very useful in a multitude of other applications, including alloys like high-speed steel and casings for high-end machine components.

Production

It comes from a semi-common overworld ore that is found somewhat deep underground, and has a depth ore variant. It is also found more commonly in the Nether.

Uses

It has a multitude of applications, thanks to its unique properties. Notably areas for heat resistance, electrical resistance, and density.
