Lands are an essential element of Alien Worlds, as they allow players to mine and collect Trillium (TLM). In order to mine, you need to select a Land which will be mined and a set of tools that will be used for mining.
Alien Worlds Lands are owned by players. Players can set a commission percentage that they get every time another player mines on their Land. You can buy Lands on the AtomicHub marketplace, or during special events called Land sales.
Lands are distributed across Alien World Planets and not every type of Land is available on every planet. The Land that you mine on is equally important element of your build as your tools.
Land stats and formulas


Each Land has stats that determine the following:
- TLM multiplier determines how much Trillium you will get,
- NFT luck multiplier determines the chance to get a NFT drop from mining,
- Charge time multiplier determines how long you will have to wait until mining again,
- and POW reduction determines how difficult is to mine the land
The total amount of Trillium (TLM) you can mine in a single is calculated based on the following formula which accounts for Land and the tools used:
Mining Power = Land Multiplier * (Sum of Tools' Mining powers)
Mining Reward = Mining Power * Planet's Mining Pot
Similarly, your chance to get a NFT is calculated as follows:
Chance of NFT = Land Multiplier * (Sum of Tools' NFT Luck)
And lastly, the total charge time since last mine is calculated with the following formula:
Charge time = Land Multiplier * (Sum of two largest tool charge times)
The Proof of Work reduction (POW) makes it easier to mine by reducing the waiting time on the mining screen and preventing stalls from occurring there. Lands like Grasslands and Plains are very easy to farm, but offer low rewards.

Planets and Lands
As mentioned above, each Planet in Alien Worlds holds a specific set of Lands. Not all Lands are available on every planet:

How Lands compare to each other

Each Alien World Land has its ups and downs, especially when deciding what type of player you want to be and what you need at the moment. Lands with higher Charge Time multipliers are more favoured by players who prefer longer AFK sessions.
In order to help you out figure out where to mine, here’s a short list of best Lands for a given scenario. The stats and calculations for these charts were provided by Vulpes, a group of Alien Worlds players that help out new players.
Best Lands to mine Trillium
The best Lands to mine Trillium are Lands with medium charge times and high TLM multipliers:
# | Name | Charge | TLM | TLM Efficiency |
