Raw materials and commodities

Since the most dominant sector on Nia is the heavy industry, the basis of economy is the constant flow of raw materials. These materials can be divided into two groups: minerals and plant materials. The occurrence of materials and plants differ, some ores are easy to find, some of them need more time to reveal.

Minerals

Titan ore

One of the most common materials, the basic commodity - pure titanium - can be extacted from it.

HDT

Quite similar to terran crude oil, used mainly to create plastics and energy sources.

Stermonit

Due to a special crystal structure, it's used mainly in optical and laser-based tools.

Imentium

A uniquely versatile material, used in almost all sectors of the Nian industry.

Liquizit

This viscous metal is the basic component of machine parts and accessories.

Epriton

As a natural alloy, it has certain attributes, which make it an important element to construct huge, solid and light machines at the same time.

Plant materials

Helioptris

The most prevalent domesticated plant. The extruded starch is a vital component of valuable plastics.

Triandlus

It is used to synthetize efficient energy sources, and is also involved in high-tech researches.

Prismocitae

Its beneficial features are still unknown, only the alien technology applies it.

Commodities and their components

Exploited materials still need to be refined into usable commodities.
