Many new players when they start their first Valheim adventure wonder where they will get the ores with which to get new building schemes, weapons as well as products. I will try to help you with this question and guide you in turn so that you do not miss anything.
how to find Copper valheim
Copper ore can be mined in the black forest biome.
This is the most popular biome that we can find in the world of Valheim. Once you get to the nearest black forest you need to look for large rocks overgrown with moss that are slightly brown in color, If you are not sure if you have found copper ore whenever you get close enough the name of the ore will be displayed.
To mine it you will need the Antler Pickaxe that you get after the first boss of Eikthyr. It’s worth remembering that copper ore is often mined very deep, so even if you thought you had extracted all the copper from the rock do a gentle dig underneath to make sure it’s all there.
How to Find Iron valheim
To mine iron in Valheim, first defeat the Elder to get the swamp key. Use this key to access sunken crypts in the swamp biome, where iron can be extracted from muddy scrap piles with a bronze pickaxe. Each crypt contains enough iron to accumulate several full piles, providing a substantial supply for creating new armor and weapons.

how to find Tin valheim
Tin ore is found in the Black Forest biome. Explore the coast and riverbanks of the Black Forest in search of small rocks through which black streaks cut, once you find them you will need an antler pickaxe to mine them.
How to Find Silver Valheim
Silver ore can be found in the biome of the mountains, it can be extracted from deposits hidden mainly underground.
This is the most troublesome ore to mine as it is found in small quantities in the mountain biome. To find it we will need Wishbone which we get from the Bonemass.
As you get closer to the silver ore the pulsation will become stronger and the sound will start to seem faster, take out the iron pick and start digging underground, If you dig in the right place, you should find silver ore underground.
If you’re still having trouble, keep in mind that some of the smaller mountain biomes won’t contain silver veins, so definitely consider checking out some of the larger biomes for better luck.
How to Find Obsidian Valheim
Obsidian can be found on the tops of mountain biomes. These rocks are often found in the open and are not buried beneath the surface. They are characterized by their black color and in large quantities on rocks and open terrain. Just remember that you will need an Iron Pickaxe to mine Obsidian.
How to Find Black Metal Valheim
Our last resource will be black metal, which we can obtain on the plains. This time we will not swing a pickaxe to extract it, but a sword. We obtain black metal from Fulings, or goblins, who live on the plains in their large settlements and patrol the area to defend their territory.
The fastest way to obtain a large amount of black metal will be to defeat the entire village, because there is a small army stationed there and in addition they have chests in which there is black metal.
CONCLUSION
To gather ores in Valheim, explore specific biomes and defeat certain enemies. Copper and tin are found in the Black Forest biome, with copper requiring an antler pickaxe and tin found along coastlines. Iron is mined from sunken crypts in the swamp biome using a bronze pickaxe, while silver and obsidian are located in the mountain biome, needing a Wishbone and iron pickaxe respectively. Black metal is obtained from defeating Fulings in the plains biome.
