Recently on the mining colony of Pax I workers discovered a rather strange metal.
It is similar to iron in weight, density and texture. But after analysis by DGNT and GLACORP scientists it has been established that the new metal (it is currently not known whether it is an alloy or a mineral all to itself) is almost totaly uneffected by temperature changes.
It does not become brittle under low temperatures, melt (or even expand) when subjected to all but the hottest environments, or do anything.
Other than this odd fact it seems to exhibit traits similar to that of iron.
The metal is rather rare, and currently not known to exist of Pax I.
The current going rate is G650 per ounce, and will remain thus until more deposites, or a way to replicate it are found.
The government has instituted inquires to determine its military value and the possibility of its use in probes, military craft, or other implimentations.
