Deep Rock Galactic Resources Guide — Nitra, Morkite and Gold

Updated 20 Oct 2026 Source Synthesized from published Deep Rock Galactic guides and game mechanics; rewritten in original wording on 20 October 2026 By Antewise Editorial

Nitra is ammunition

Nitra converts directly into resupply pods. A team without nitra is a team without ammo, and that is the most common way a mission collapses.

Objective minerals next

Morkite and the other objective minerals are the mission. Mine them on the way, not as a separate trip.

Gold last

Gold is cosmetic. Mine it when the objective is done and the cave is quiet, never before.

Frequently asked questions

Which resource matters most?

Nitra. It buys resupply pods, and running dry on ammo ends missions faster than any bug.

Should I mine gold?

Only when the cave is calm. Gold buys cosmetics, and the time spent on it is time not spent preparing the extraction.
