It can be found naturally in the glowing industrial runoff pools within the [Karakorum Metal Farms](Karakorum_Metal_Farms). -  Axum Bacterial Culture is a finite resource, as only 5 samples are known to currently spawn in Early Access v1.0.   ## Uses in Crafting  -*   [Metal Farm](Metal_Farm)+*   Used to craft the [[Metal Farm]].   ## Strategy  -Due to the finite nature of the resource, it is recommended to harvest the Axum bacterial culture using a [Sonic Resonator](Sonic_Resonator) to avoid rare reported incidences of manual harvesting resulting in the cultures glitching under the map. +Due to a glitch with object placement, some of the cultures will disappear and become unobtainable when breaking their container. Therefore it is recommended to manually save your game before harvesting the Axum bacterial culture. If the bacterial culture glitches under the map, the game can then be reloaded to try again. There are only about 5 spawning locations near the Karakorum Metal Farm.  -Alternatively, the game can be manually saved before harvesting each node. If the bacterial culture glitches under the map, the game can then be reloaded to try again.
