Dravite Ore

Dravite Ore is a rainbow colored mineral block found in Dravite Hills. Mining Dravite Ore will drop Dravite Fragments, which are then used to create a variety of items. To obtain Dravite Fragments, the player must mine it with a Rupee Pickaxe (or any equivalent) or better. '''Mining it with an Arlemite Pickaxe will not work. '''Dravite Ore is the only ore in Dravite Hills. Dravite Fragments may also be obtained by smelting Dravite Ore. Dravite is a tier higher than Rupee, and a tier lower than Azurite.

Natural Occurence
Dravite Ore is found among the stone areas of Dravite Hills, spawning in veins of 3 to 8. Dravite Ore is surprisingly common, and can be found exposed out in the open, making it easy to spot.

Mining
Dravite Ore is often exposed in Dravite Hills, therefore few mining techniques are required to find them. The only problem that arises from this is that Dravite Ore can spawn on the underside of islands. This means that players have to stack blocks to reach them, making them vulnerable to Cories, which can knock them off easily.

Strip mining techniques are generally ineffective due to the small sizes of the floating islands, and the abundance of exposed Dravite Ore. However, because of the small sizes of the islands, players must traverse from island to island if they want to find more Dravite Ore, because the supply of this ore on each island is limited.

Uses
Dravite Ore drop Dravite Fragments, which can be crafted in to Dravite Dust, the ammunition for the Dravite Blitz. Dravite Fragments are also used to make Dravite Chests, which are basically large chests occupying a single block of space. But perhaps the main use of Dravite Fragments are the crafting of Dravite Blocks, which are used to build the portal to the Azurite Forests.

Dravite Fragments can be crafted in to Gems, which are then used to craft Dravite Slicers. Finally, Dravite Gems can then be crafted into Chunks, which are used to make higher-tier Tools, Weapons and Armor.

Trivia

 * Although Dravite Ore is surprisingly common, killing native creatures such as Bunnies and Dravite Cadillons is a far more effective way of farming Dravite Fragments. This is because they drop Dravite Souls upon death, which can be crafted into Dravite Fragments. In addition, you do not have to traverse from island to island, because all mob drops are renewable, as they spawn quite frequently.
