Advanced Resources & Manufactured Goods

Master advanced resources and manufactured goods in Surviving Mars. Learn about extraction, production, and construction to build a thriving Martian colony.

This section of the guide covers advanced resources and manufactured goods in Surviving Mars. Understanding how to gather, process, and utilize these materials is crucial for expanding your colony and overcoming the challenges of the Martian environment.

Key aspects include:

• Resource Extraction: Utilizing extractors for underground and terrain deposits, managing surface deposits, and understanding deposit grades (very low, low, average, high, very high) which affect production rates.
• Production Chains: Building factories and other specialized structures to convert raw resources into manufactured goods.
• Construction Requirements: Ensuring necessary resources are available and within drone service range for construction projects.
• Waste Management: Handling waste rock generated by extractors and ensuring extractors can continue operating.
• Advanced Resources: Discovering and extracting deep underground deposits of Metals, Rare Metals, and Water, which often require specific research.

Effective management of these advanced resources and manufactured goods is key to long-term survival and prosperity on Mars.
