Meteorite

Obtained from Fallen Meteorites (caused by breaking a Shadow Orb), requires a Gold Pickaxe or higher to mine. The Meteorite once fallen can be located in almost any place in the world map, even underwater at the edges of the map, so every inch of the surface should be scoured when the meteorite lands to find it.

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 them while mining. A player can also get all the meteor heads on one side and then mine while keeping the meteor heads away with knockback by hitting them with a pickaxe.
