'''Iridium Ore''' is a type of [[:Category:Resources|resource]] in ''[[Stardew Valley]]''. It is obtained from rare Iridium deposits, as well as from some high level [[Monsters]] as a rare drop. Iridium Ore can also be found in [[Geodes]] such as the [[Omni Geode]] and [[Magma Geode]]. Additionally, it can rarely be found in treasure chests while fishing. The [[Statue of Perfection]] grants 2-8 Iridium Ore per day.
'''Iridium Ore''' is a [[:Category:Resources|resource]] that can be obtained in a variety of locations (see "Locations" below).
==Where to Acquire==
==Locations==
* The ore deposits themselves are extremely rare in at least floor 115-120 of [[The Mines]], however Iridium Ore deposits can be found in the [[Quarry]], and have been spotted in some of the lower levels of the [[Skull Cavern]].
* Mining [[Mining#Iridium Node|Iridium Nodes]] and [[Mining#Mystic Stone|Mystic Stones]].
** Iridium Nodes can be found in the [[Skull Cavern]] and [[Volcano Dungeon]]. They can also spawn on [[Farm Maps#Hilltop|Hill-top]] and [[Farm Maps#Four Corners|Four Corners]] farm maps at Mining Skill level 10.<br />Tips: The chance to find Iridium Ore increases steadily the further one descends into the Skull Cavern. Large amounts of [[staircase]]s or [[Crafting#Bombs|bombs]] can get one deep into Skull Cavern quickly.
* The [[Traveling Cart]] will occasionally sell it for varying prices ({{price|300}} , {{price|500}} and {{price|1000}} have been seen).
** Mystic Stones can be found in [[the Mines]] (Floor 100+), [[Quarry]], [[Skull Cavern]] and [[Volcano Dungeon]].
* A fairly reliable source of the ore is through Magma and Omni geodes on lower mine levels. These can be obtained frequently by mining all rocks on the mine levels 115-119. To further enhance geode frequency, choose the Geologist skill at [[mining]] level 5 and the Excavator skill at [[mining]] level 10. With both skills chosen, you can obtain ~20 geodes from each pass of mining all rocks from level 115 down to 120. You can also go to [[Skull Cavern]] and use [[Staircase]] down to 70-80 levels. Chances to find Iridium Ore there are pretty high.
* Opening [[Magma Geode]]s, [[Omni Geode]]s and [[Golden Coconut]]s.
* As of March 9th, 2016 v.1.05 the chance to find Iridium in the [[Skull Cavern]] increases significantly every ten levels.
** To further enhance geode frequency, choose the [[Mining#Mining Skill|Geologist Profession]] at [[mining]] level 5 and the [[Mining#Mining Skill|Excavator Profession]] at [[mining]] level 10.
* The purple slimes in the [[ Skull Cavern ]] have a chance to drop both iridium ore and bars. Once unlocked the slimes tend to give more iridium than you will find from mining in the cavern.
** [[Krobus]] sells 1 [[Omni Geode]] every [[Days of the Week#Tuesday|Tuesday]] for {{price|300}} each and the [[Oasis]] sells 3 Omni Geodes every [[Days of the Week#Wednesday|Wednesday]] for {{price|1000}} each.
** The [[Oasis]] sells 10 [[Coconut]]s every [[Days of the Week#Monday|Monday]] for {{price|400}} each, which can then be traded with the [[Island Trader]] for 1 [[Golden Coconut]] after having cracked at least one Golden Coconut.
* It is a rare drop from high level [[Monsters]].
** Purple slimes in the [[Skull Cavern]] have a chance to drop both iridium ore and [[Iridium Bar|iridium bars]]. They can be raised in [[Slime Hutch]]es.
** [[Bats|Iridium Bats]] in the [[Skull Cavern]] may drop an Iridium Bar (0.8% chance) and up to 4 Iridium Ore when slain.
** [[Iridium Crab]]s in the [[Skull Cavern]] may drop up to 3 Iridium Ore when slain.
** [[Iridium Golem]]s may drop Iridium Ore when slain (20% chance).
* The [[Traveling Cart]] will occasionally sell it for {{tprice|100}}.
* A [[Super Cucumber]] [[Fish Pond]] may produce 1-3 Iridium Ore when the population of the pond reaches 9.
* A fallen [[Random Events#Meteorite|meteorite]] on [[the Farm]] will drop 6 Iridium Ore.
* Iridium Ore can be found in [[Fishing#Treasure Chests|Fishing Treasure Chests]].
* [[Pans|Panning]] may also occasionally yield Iridium Ore.
* The [[Statue Of Perfection]], which can be obtained after getting four candles during [[Grandpa#Grandpa's Evaluation|Grandpa's Evaluation]], gives the player 2-8 Iridium Ore per day.
