Sandustry Materials List and Matter Types
Complete Sandustry material coverage by terrain, solid, liquid, gas, slushy, and wisp categories, with links to reaction guides.
The material system is larger than a recipe list. Use matter type and density to predict movement, then verify the interaction or machine that converts each resource.
How to use this index
The names below mirror the current category coverage on the official Wiki, but the descriptions and guides here are independently written. High-intent materials get dedicated pages; the complete list remains on this hub so nothing is hidden behind thin stubs.
Core early chain

| Wet Sand | Slushy Shaker input | Process on Shaker |
| Gold | Research currency | Spend in Research tab |
| Residue | Guaranteed Shaker output | Clear or process later |
| Water | Reaction and phase resource | Contain and meter |
