Cobalt is a chemical element with symbol Co and atomic number 27. Like nickel, cobalt in the Earth's crust is found only in chemically combined form, save for small deposits found in alloys of natural meteoric iron. The free element, produced by reductive smelting, is a hard, lustrous, silver-gray metal.
Ore is a type of rock that contains minerals such as metals which can be extracted through mining and refined for use. The ores must be processed to extract the metals of interest from the waste rock and from the ore minerals. Many organizations prefer to receive unsmelted ores in order to keep the additional cost of their production and finish within the local economy, as opposed to paying markups to foreign laborers to do the work for them.
Buy/Sell Locations
- This item is not bought or sold on any known bases. It may only be available from shipwrecks, sold on player bases, or given by administrators.
Mining Locations
- Mining surveys have revealed the following fields for this commodity. Any ship can extract the resource at half the displayed rate, while factions that specialize in these resources can get several times more. Aggressive mining will also cause the drop-rate to decrease.
