Most non-[[magma-safe]] objects that were in the [[water]] or [[magma]] prior to the formation of obsidian are completely destroyed, which can be an effective method of removing unwanted items or enemies although long exposure times to magma are suggested to ensure destruction. All [[magma-safe]] items will be entombed in the tile, and can be regained by mining it along with some magma-unsafe items if they happen to survive the process. The survival rate of magma-unsafe items is believed to depend on the exposure time to magma being short enough to not cause the item in question to melt before obsidian formation occurs. No instances of globs of molten metal surviving obsidian formation have been noted and also the survival seems to be occurring only on hard items (items made of metal/rock) as no clothing has as of yet survived obsidian casting. {{Verify}}
