“ | Basically, it's 'Mørk', which in Danish means 'Darkness', and then we added 'ite', as in stalactite, so it becomes 'Morkite'... the Dark Mineral. |

Morkite is a basic mineral that appears in Mining Expedition missions and "Extract Morkite" objectives for Deep Dives. The primary objective in Mining Expeditions consists of gathering a certain amount of Morkite, ranging from 200 to 400 units. Morkite will appear in your inventory, much like many other resources, and must be deposited into the M.U.L.E to count towards the primary quota.
Appearance[]
Morkite is a shiny, dark teal mineral. Similar to wall-dwelling minerals like Nitra and Gold, its faces glimmer in dark caverns, making them visible even without light.
Mined Morkite chunks use the same model as Oil Shale, and Red Sugar.
Locations[]
Morkite can be found in any Planetary Region during Mining Expeditions. It seems to spawn slightly more frequently than the mineral Nitra.
Trivia[]
- Morkite Ale was hinted on the Public Service Announcement (PSA) Boards before Update 17: "Oktoberfest" hit. Upon the update's release, it appears under the name "Dark Morkite" in the Abyss Bar.
- Since Update 18: "Job Opportunities", Abyss Bar beverage "Dark Morkite" increases Morkite mined by 20%.
- Morkite bears a resemblance to the real world minerals Malachite and Dioptase, both dark teal minerals.
- On a developer livestream on the Ghost Ship Games Twitch (19th of May, 2022), developers were approached with the question of what Morkite is used for, responding with "That's a management secret."
