| Type of Algeochemical Ore | Price |
Warpstone Ore A type of Uranium Ore containing high quantities of Warpstone, the impossible U-259 isotope. Oceanyka's Federal Government indicates that this material is exceedingly toxic and radioactive in a way that makes contemporary protective equipment moot, a half-truth. Any finding must be immediately reported, while its mining, possession and refining is strictly illegal. Used to manufacture Enriched Warpstone. | NOT FOR SALE |
Spectrum Ore A pale, faintly luminescent ore known as thaumarchite from which Spectrum is refined. Even in raw form, thaumarchite produces a low-level disruptive effect on psionic activity in the immediate vicinity. Historically prized by the Collegiate of Magicians for esoteric instrumentation, it is now used for countermagic technologies, such as Psych-Out munitions. Used to manufacture Spectrum. | NOT FOR SALE |
Orichalcum Ore A deep purple, vitreous ore called electrite, from which Orichalcum is refined. Electrite deposits produce faint but measurable electromagnetic fields in their surroundings, occasionally interfering with nearby instruments. The ore has no useful properties in its raw form; all value lies in the refining process. Used to manufacture Orichalcum. | £500/kg |
Adamantium Ore An extraordinarily dense, reddish ore called adamantite, bearing the anomalous elemental composition from which Adamantium is refined. Raw adamantite is already exceptionally hard and must be stored away from ignition sources; fragments have been known to ignite if struck sharply. Used to manufacture Adamantium. | £300/kg |
Mithril Ore A silvery-grey ore of deceptively low density called mithrilite, from which Mithril is refined. Mithrilite deposits are among the rarest of the algeochemical ores and the hardest to locate, as the ore produces no anomalous environmental signature to betray its presence. Used to manufacture Mithril. | £150/kg |
Bluemetal Ore A distinctive blue-grey ore called bluetrite, endemic to Oceanyka and limited New Zealand deposits, bearing an unusual stable amalgam of iron, titanium and other compounds. Bluetrite is the most industrially accessible of the metallic algeochemical ores, and the basis of the longest-established algeochemical metallurgical tradition. Used to manufacture Bluemetal. | £50/kg |
Firedust Ore Phosgolute is an inert, ochre-coloured rock bearing phosphorus, aluminium and sulphur compounds in a configuration that conventional geology cannot account for. Harmless in raw form, though extremely dangerous at the grinding stage. Phosgolute dust is flammable and must be handled in controlled conditions. Used to manufacture Firedust. | £8/kg |
Ferrous Soil Oceanyka's characteristic iron-rich red soil, elevated above ordinary Outback dirt only by its anomalously high and consistent iron content and the trace bluetrite particulate dispersed through it. In sufficient quantity and with sufficient patience, it can be smelted into Munition Steel. Used to manufacture Munition Steel. | £0.005 |
