In Subnautica: Below Zero, there are two types of Raw Materials: Minerals/Ores and Biological. They have a variety of uses so it’s a good idea to keep an eye on where materials are found and regularly top up to make sure you always have a stack of materials to use. The first few resources we’ll highlight are locations of important Minerals and Ores on the Subnautica Map. You’ll need to pay attention to two things on the map, that being the markers and the white highlighted portion of the map. Be sure to surface for oxygen on time while searching for these fragments, although they are not very deep and are littered around your Pod.This indicates the thing you’re looking for is found in those Biomes but not exactly where to find them.

Once you have a Scanner, you will be able to scan Seaglide Fragments you find on the ocean floor around your Drop Pod. However, that's a pretty slow way to travel! A SeaGlide makes transportation much faster and safer, because you can more easily escape sharks and other predators. The recipe requires Silicone Rubber, which is made from a Creepvine Seed Cluster, and one Titanium.Īt this point, if you have collected some food, water and resources, you could swim to Delta Station. Use the Fabricator in the Drop Pod to create it. A Survival Knife - This small knife can be used to attack any creatures that attach or stalk you, like land and sea carnivores.Copper Ore comes from the same Limestone Outcroppings that Titanium does. Ribbon Plants can be collected in the shallow sea floor around your Drop Pod and are shiny, light green plants. Batteries are made from two Ribbon Plants and one Copper Ore. The recipe is one Battery and one Titanium chunk. A Scanner - A Scanner allows you to synthesize blueprints and research flora, fauna and machinery fragments.

Collect these outside the Drop Pod to make Copper Wiring and other basic materials you will need later.
