Magnellium Ore is a distinct ore, notable for its high concentration of dyon particles, generated over millions of years through persistent magnetic activity. It is commonly found in small quantities within bodies orbiting magnetar neutron stars and can be refined and shaped into a potent monopole magnet. Magnellium boasts efficiency magnitudes above that of conventional superconductive electromagnets, allowing kinetic weapons crafted from it to be simultaneously stronger and lighter. Despite possessing the strength of iron, the refinement process of Magnellium is delicate and calculated.
The ore is gradually heated to its substantial melting point to preserve its magnetic properties before being passed through a robust electromagnetic coil, segregating its impurities into slag. Intriguingly, the directional flow of the coil's magnetic field dictates the monopole's orientation in the finalized piece of Magnellium. While its predominant use has been identified, the potential for additional applications of this resource remains an open avenue, pending further research and exploration.
