Building materials on Europa

+0
−0

What would colonists building a base on Europa use for building materials? I am interested in habitats in three locations:

  • on or just under the surface
  • bolted onto the underside of the ice sheet
  • rooms hollowed out from the lowest level of the ice sheet

Can metals or other building material be extracted from dust on the surface or in the ice? Is it plausible to harvest or mine minerals and metals from the ocean floor?
