Cobalt is a Refined Metal produced by processing Cobalt Ore with a Rock Crusher, Metal Refinery, or Smooth Hatches. Cobalt is also produced in its Liquid phase by Cobalt Volcanoes.
Usage[]
As a Refined Metal, Cobalt can be used to build advanced Power systems, buildings, and Automation systems.
Exosuit Forge can produce Atmo Suit with Cobalt. 300 kg Aluminum or Copper or Iron or Cobalt + 2 unit Reed Fiber = 1 unit Atmo Suit.
Production[]
Metal Refinery can produce Cobalt from Cobalt Ore in 1:1 ratio. 100 kg Cobalt Ore = 100 kg Cobalt. It requires Duplicants operation.
An alternative way to produce Cobalt is Smooth Hatches herding. A Smooth Hatch roughly eats 100 kg Cobalt Ore and excretes 75 kg Cobalt.
Rock Crusher can produce Cobalt from Cobalt Ore too. This is not recommended due to lower efficiency of 50%. 100 kg Cobalt Ore = 50 kg Cobalt + 50 kg Sand. It requires Duplicants operation.
Tips[]
Cobalt has an extremely high thermal conductivity so it can be used for temperature shift plates instead of diamond if needed.
