Panning for rare minerals/ores is what Prospecting is all about, and to find them all, you'll have to pan a lot. However, each mineral has specific areas where it spawns, and getting it can be easier if you know exactly in which area it's best to farm it. To help you with filling the collection, doing quests, and gathering crafting materials, here is our complete Prospecting Roblox minerals list and collection guide!
All Ores, Chances, and Museum Stats in Prospecting Roblox
Ores (minerals) are the most important thing in the Prospecting Roblox experience. You sell them to make money, you can use them for crafting, and some specific ones are also needed for quests. In the tables below, you can find the list of all ores in Prospecting, their value, in which locations they spawn and at what rate, as well as their Museum placecment boosts, all categorized by their rarity.
NOTE: All ores except for the Exotic ones are obtainable in The Void. The pool of items is based on 3 randomly picked areas and lasts for the entire Void duration. Only 3 different Mythics will spawn during a single Void event.

How to Get Specific Legendary and Mythic Ores in Prospecting
Epic, Legendary, and Mythic minerals and ores are the hardest to get in Prospecting, and there is a trick you can use to obtain certain ones more easily. What you need to do is prospect in the area where the mineral you're looking for has the least competition among the minerals of the same rarity. For example, Diamond is the most common Legendary on Sunset Beach. So, if a Legendary is rolled, Diamond has the highest chance of appearing. The same is true for minerals of other rarities.
How Does Luck Work in Prospecting Roblox?
The rarity of every item you get is based on a randomly rolled number. Your Luck modifier determines how many times the number will be rolled, and the best of all rolled values will determine the item's final rarity. So if you have 50 Luck, you'll have ~50x more chance to get a higher-rarity item than someone with 1 Luck. That value isn't exact because there is a set chance of weakened/no luck that assures low-rarity items are always obtainable even when your Luck reaches insane numbers.
Prospecting Roblox Minerals/Ores FAQ
Use the search function on your browser or scroll until you find the ore that you need. Then, check out the Available Locations column to find all the areas where it can drop.
What is the best location to prospect for new players?
If you're new, the best place to farm is the Fortune River. It has plenty of good Rare minerals that will drop often and sell for decent amounts of money.
Should you sell high-rarity minerals or save them for crafting?
Usually, it's best to save all Legendary and Mythic minerals for crafting. You can also save some hard-to-find Epic minerals, though finding them shouldn't be as much of a problem.
That does it for our Prospecting Roblox ore (mineral) list and collection guide.
