Resources
Mining is a profitable activity that can be performed in a cave. Every cave offers opportunities to use the multitool, while the biggest caverns allow a ROC or even an ARGO MOLE to enter them.

Another profitable activity, depending on the celestial body where the cavern is located, is the collection of harvestables.

Caves are often the destination of on-planet Investigate missions where the player will have to traverse the depths of the cave.
