Compressed Bright Spodumain

Spodumain is occasionally found with crystalline traces in its outer surface. Known as bright spodumain, the crystal adds considerable value to an already valuable mineral. Spodumain is amongst the most desirable ore types around, as it contains high volumes of the four most heavily demanded minerals. Huge volumes of tritanium and pyerite, as well as moderate amounts of mexallon and isogen can be obtained by refining these rocks. This ore is a compressed and much more dense version of the original ore.

Spodumain carries enormous Tritanium volume plus meaningful Megacyte. The units are large enough that hauling, not mining, is usually the bottleneck.
