''Trigun Stampede'' appears to show a planetary surface that has landmasses similar to continents surrounded by a sand "ocean". There are many canyons and crevices spread across the rocky continents, likely carved by the actions of sand and wind. Tall, jagged, rocky scarps and spires are common, though it isn't known if there are any mountain ranges akin to those on Earth (the series has not depicted anything like plate tectonics yet). The sand "ocean" is simply a large, miles-deep area of relatively loose sand. It is still solid enough at its surface to be traversed by animals, cars, trucks, or other special craft built for that purpose. | ''Trigun Stampede'' appears to show a planetary surface that has landmasses similar to continents surrounded by a sand "ocean".

Mineralogically, the planet is mostly composed of quartz, and probably contains a mantle and a core similar to those of other known terrestrial planets. It is probably safe to assume that it contains deposits of things like iron and nickel as well, though the series never officially states this. It is unknown if the planet contains any petroleum deposits, though it's not completely unlikely. | Mineralogically, the planet is mostly composed of quartz{{Storylink|REM SAVEREM}}, and probably contains a mantle and a core similar to those of other known terrestrial planets.
