{{Item infobox |title=Olivine |image=Olivine_Texture_1.7.7.0_Pre1.png |item=Olivine |description=A dark green gem that seems to block light. |renewable=y |stackable=64 }} '''Olivine''' is a olive-green silicate mineral that is found by processing other blocks. The high crystallization point of olivine allows it to be used as cheap fuel in [[Blast Furnace|blast furnaces]], and the stone's vitreous luster enables it to block light from passing through it. == Obtaining == === Trommeling === {| class="wikitable" !Block !Amount !Chance |- |{{BlockSprite|Dirt|name=y|link=y}} | 1 |0.3% |- |{{BlockSprite|Gravel|name=y|link=y}} |1-2 |24% |- |{{BlockSprite|Sand|name=y|link=y}} |1 |3.6% |- |{{BlockSprite|Rich Scorched Dirt|name=y|link=y}} |1-3 |15% |- |{{BlockSprite|Grass|name=y|link=y}} |1 |0.3% |- |{{BlockSprite|Retro Grass|name=y|link=y}} |1 | 0.3% |} === Blasting === [[Cobbled basalt]] can be smelted in a [[blast furnace]] to obtain olivine. {{Crafting table |type=blast-furnace |input=Cobbled Basalt |fuel=Nether Coal |RESULT=Olivine |name=n |foot=y }} === Crafting === {{Crafting table |type=inventory |1=Block of Olivine |RESULT=Olivine,8 |name=n |foot=y }} == Usage == === Fuel === Olivine can be used as fuel in a [[blast furnace]] to smelt 2 items. It does ''not'' work in regular [[Furnace|furnaces]]. === Crafting ingredient === Olivine can be used to craft [[Olivine Block|olivine blocks]] and [[tinted glass]]. {{Crafting table |1=Olivine|2=Olivine|3=Olivine |4=Olivine |6=Olivine |7=Olivine|8=Olivine|9=Olivine |RESULT=Block of Olivine |type=workbench }} {{Crafting table |type=inventory |1=Glass |2=Olivine |3=Olivine |4=Glass |RESULT=Tinted Glass,4 |foot=y }} == Data values == {{ID table|name={{ItemSprite|Olivine|name=y}}|type=Item|nameid=item.olivine|numid=16513|foot=y}} == History == {{history|?|Added olivine.}} {{history|Better than Adventure! 1.7.7.0|snap=Pre-1|Updated the texture of olivine.|foot=y}} == Trivia == * Since olivine smelts two items per piece, it can be used to very slowly create infinite [[blast furnace]] fuel, provided the player has constructed a [[basalt]] generator. * In the real world, olivine is one of the minerals that comprises darker, more iron-and-magnesium-rich "mafic" stones, hence why it yields from smelting down [[basalt]] (a mafic stone) in a [[blast furnace]]. * While olivine ''does'' catch fire at incredibly high temperatures in the real world, this attribute does not lend it to being used as fuel much. Its fuel properties in [[Better than Adventure!|BTA!]] are somewhat of an artistic liberty taken in favor of providing more interesting mechanics and a tradeoff with fuels on the [[blast furnace]] tier. * Olivine's texture is similar to [https://terraria.wiki.gg/wiki/Etherian_Mana Etherian Mana], an item from ''Terraria''. It also looks like [https://sims.fandom.com/wiki/Plumbob Plumbob] from ''The Sims'' series. [[Category:Items]]
