Overview
Magnetite is a raw material used for Advanced Fabrication. It is one of the more difficult materials to locate. It can be found in Ore Veins and Spy Pengling crevices in the Arctic Spires and Glacial Basin areas, in the Deep Lilypads Cave on the wall and ceilings (though only a few spawn here), and on the floor of the Crystal Caves. It can also be provided by Sea Monkeys along with all the other resources they can provide. At least one Magnetite will be required to create the HUD Device necessary to use the Scanner Room's ability to locate resources.
There is a cave in the Glacial Basin/Blue Ice Cave which contains 2 ore veins totaling 9 Magnetite at coordinates -1391 27 -668 which can be useful early game to make nearly every item that requires magnetite.
