Ore-2 is a variety of energon grown on Gorlam Prime. A product of Shockwave's Regenesis program, the ore is also known as "death" (or "extermination"), and causes a localized decaying effect that drains anything it comes into contact with of life.
Fiction
2005 IDW continuity
Around 600,000 years ago, one of the Regenesis missiles launched by Shockwave landed on Gorlam Prime. The mutated energon ore it was carrying penetrated an underground cavern, where its decaying effect caused a portal to the Dead Universe, an alternate reality of unlife, to open beneath the planet's surface. Using this portal, which took the form of a silvery, liquid-metal ocean, the crew of Nova Prime's Ark-1, lost to the Dead Universe millions of years beforehand, were at last able to return to their home universe. Some time later, an injured Titan arrived on Gorlam Prime, assuming its city mode within the cavern; millennia later, when Orion Pax and his allies visited Gorlam Prime, Wheelie attempted to touch one of the city-mode Titan's buildings, and was stricken by the ore's decaying effect, which caused one of his arms to corrode away to nothingness and would have consumed his whole body if Hardhead had not blasted the affected limb off. Jhiaxus then manipulated Pax into awakening the Titan, and the giant robot's transformation threw Gorlam Prime's equilibrium into chaos, hastening the decay of Ore-2 and causing it to consume the entire planet.
