How to Get Iron Ore
Obtained by Mining

In The Seven Deadly Sins: Origin, Iron Ore is obtained by mining mineral deposits scattered throughout the map.
How to Mine an Ore
Attack mineral deposits, such as Iron Ore nodes, to mine them. Mining speed depends on your character's weapon type, so using a suitable weapon, such as a Greatsword, will improve efficiency.
How to Locate Ores
- Open the Bag and Select Other
- Click on the Ore Material → Mining
- Select "Start Tracking"

Open your Bag and navigate to the "Other" tab. It is located at the bottom of the tab list after scrolling down.

Select the ore you want to gather to open its description window and choose "Mining" under the Source section.

After selecting "Mining" in the ore description, a map will open showing the nearest ore location. Select "Start Tracking" to keep track of the deposit. Only one node can be selected at a time.

If you don’t have any ore in your Bag, you can check its source through the Workbench. Open the Workbench, select a refined material (e.g., Iron Ingot), then click on Iron Ore in the materials list and choose "Mining" under Source.
Iron Ore Uses
Mainly Refined Into an Iron Ingot

Iron Ore is primarily used to craft Iron Ingots, a core material for creating various items and upgrading weapons in the early game.
Iron Ingot for Enhancing Workbench

In the early game, it's important to enhance your workbench as soon as possible. To enhance a Makeshift Workbench into a Sturdy Workbench, you need 8 Iron Ingots.
Iron Ingot for Crafting

Iron Ingot is also used for crafting items such as Magic Beads, Makeshift Brazier, and more.
Iron Ingot for Early Weapon Tier Up

In the early game, Iron Ingots are required to increase your weapon tier and raise its enhancement level cap. So, be sure to collect any Iron Ore you encounter during exploration.
