How to find thorium ore in Hytale, smelt Thorium Ingots, and browse the full Thorium gear set in HySphere’s catalog.

“How to find thorium Hytale” is a breakout resource query. The extract includes Thorium Ore (plus Dry Mud and Sandstone variants) and Thorium Ingot, alongside a full gear line — axes, swords, bows, armor pieces, and tools.
Mine thorium ore nodes, refine to ingots, then open any Thorium weapon/armor card to walk craft inputs backward.
Gear comparison tip
Sort Gear by item level and compare Thorium pieces against Cobalt/Mithril neighbors before committing scarce ingots. Use the DPS tool for loadout previews.
Salvage note
Thorium gear appears in salvage recipes that return materials — useful if you craft the wrong piece. Check salvage vs craft loops before deleting duplicates.

Always confirm on the live item cards.
