'''Alum''' is a mineral that is primarily used for creating [[Dye|dyes]]. | |||
[[File:Crushed alum.jpg|thumb|right|Crushed alum]] | |||
== Creation == | |||
Alum can be found as an ore in [[Rock|sedimentary rock]]. Alum chunks may also be sold by the [[Trading|commodities trader]]. Mining a block of alum produces alum chunks. | |||
== Usage == | |||
Alum chunks must first be crushed in a [[Mechanical_Power#Crushing|pulverizer]] to produce crushed alum. Crushed alum may be mixed with water in a [[barrel]] to produce diluted alum, which is necessary to produce nearly all dyes. | |||
