The '''Ore Refinery''' converts, or "refines", [[LEGO Ore]] into [[Building Stud]]s. This makes building a lot quicker, as it takes a lot less Building Studs to teleport a building than with Ore, making the transport much quicker. When first built, it requires a minimum of 5 Ore units to make a stud.  Note: Studs can be made with larger amounts of Ore, as [[Vehicles]] with [[Mining Tools|Cargo Loads]] will occasionally deliver more than the minimum amount. Whenever that happens, the extra Ore will be directly added to the Ore count. Buildings Studs count as 5 Ore units, regardless of how many Ore units were actually used to make them. [[Vehicles]] with [[Cargo Load|Cargo Loads]] cannot carry building studs.

Official render of the Ore Refinery

The Ore Refinery is a building used by the Rock Raiders for refining Ore into Building Studs, for the purpose of making construction quicker. Like most Rock Raiders buildings, it did not appear in any LEGO sets.

In the Windows game

In the Windows version of LEGO Rock Raiders, the Ore Refinery is one of the four buildings unlocked upon upgrading the Power Station. It takes up a 3x1 space, with two construction blocks in the center and to the back, and one Power Path to the front. Once it has been built and powered, Rock Raiders will start taking Ore to the Ore Refinery instead of depositing it into the Tool Store, and Ore will no longer be used to construct buildings and Power Paths unless the Ore Refinery has its power turned off or is destroyed. Every five pieces of Ore thrown into the Ore Refinery will be refined into a Building Stud. The amount of Ore needed to make a building stud can be lowered with upgrades, but the Building Stud will still be counted as five pieces of Ore, making it far more efficient to use in construction. However, the Small Transport Truck can't carry Building Studs. Additionally, upgrading the Ore Refinery will cause the Small Transport Truck to frequently deposit excessive Ore, which will be automatically added to the Ore counter but not be usable until all stored Building Studs have been used up.

There are three upgrade levels available for the Ore Refinery, the most any building has:

  • Level 1: Lowers the amount of Ore needed to make a Building Stud to four pieces
  • Level 2: Lowers the amount of Ore needed to make a Building Stud to three pieces
  • Level 3: Lowers the amount of Ore needed to make a Building Stud to two pieces

Dependency

The Ore Refinery costs 3 Energy Crystals and 20 pieces of Ore (or 4 Building Studs) and requires the following for construction:
