Meteorite

Obtained from Fallen Meteorites (caused by breaking a Shadow Orb), requires a Gold Pickaxe or higher to mine.

Due to being available in large amounts, six are required to make a Meteorite Bar.

Use caution when mining as contact with the stone itself causes damage unless equipped with an Obsidian Skull. The area is also guarded by Meteor Heads.

A good way to mine it all fast is with Dynamite or Bombs.A player could also equip a Cobalt Shield and let the Meteor Heads to hit him while mining.A player can also get all the meteor heads on one side and then mine while keeping the Heads away with knockback by hitting them with a pickaxe.
