RimWorld utilizes a variety of different resources. All resources have to be hauled to a Stockpile to be used.

Used for trading
Silver is used for trading with traders, however each trader has a limited stock you can buy from. Silver is used to buy slaves, resources, and weapons. Additionally, traders will buy resources relevant to their specialization. Industrial Traders will buy silver, uranium, metal and wooden planks, Combat Traders will buy weapons, and Food Traders will buy food. Silver in great quantity is among the wreckage at the start of the game. After this silver is depleted, additional silver may only be obtained through random drops or trading. Template:Clr
Metal

Metal is the primary resource for mid to late game construction, and is therefore vital. Metal appears at your crash site when a new game is started. After this metal is exhausted, it can be obtained through random drops or mining. Metal can be mined from minerals, which are found in mineral veins in the mountains. Industrial traders buy and sell metal. Template:Clr

To create stone right click the table, click 'Bills', and use the + and - buttons to set how many pieces of rubble you wish to consume.
