Ore vein

Ore veins are harvestable objects found in Fallout 76.

Characteristics
Ore veins are a source of metal or mineral ore and are found in rocky outcroppings, caves, and mines throughout Appalachia. They typically provide less ore than Resource deposits and are limited to metals. Wearing both arms of Excavator power armor when harvesting ore veins increases the amount of ore harvested before the veins are depleted, especially when harvesting during Lode Baring.
