Metal Ore
Metal ore can be smelted into metal fragments through a furnace which is used to craft most of the tools, structures, items and weaponry throughout the game and is vital to have during most of the time being.

Crafting
Metal Ore cannot be crafted — it drops as loot, comes from a research blueprint, or is found at monuments.
Recycling
Rust has two recycler types. Monument recyclers are faster and yield 60%, but you can be attacked. Safe-zone recyclers in Outpost and Bandit yield 40% and take longer, but turrets protect you.
