You can find iridium in various places in The Planet Crafter. The most common is in caves, particularly those hidden behind sand waterfalls. You can also find iridium in blue containers and after meteor showers, though these two seem rarer than caves.

You can spot iridium thanks to its red glow. Typically, this ore spawns on top and the sides of rock formations. When you find a cave, gather as much iridium as you can carry and take it back to your base for storage.

Iridium is used to craft heat-related structures such as heaters, iridium rods, and explosives. As caves are not all that common, we recommend you clean caves out of iridium when you find them.
