SAM Ore

S.A.M. Ore, which stands for Strange Alien Metal, a rare resource found in the world. S.A.M. Ore can be be extracted from its uniquely located resource nodes, or can be found in random resource deposits.

Currently, S.A.M. resource nodes will only produce 15-99 ore, sharing properties with resource deposits; after this amount of ore is extracted, no more will be produced until the game is reloaded (the node will stay in place, and the Miner's Indicator Light will flash yellow). Node purity and Miner mark has no effect on the mined amount.

Usage
S.A.M. Ore currently has no use. It cannot be sinked into the AWESOME Sink.

Trivia

 * S.A.M. Ore is story-related.
 * Due to story elements being added alongside or just before 1.0, the use for S.A.M. Ore may be implemented into the game very late on. However, Coffee Stain has considered implementing S.A.M. content earlier on by stripping it of the story elements.
 * It will likely be a M.A.M. resource.
 * Its content will "mostly be used by players nearing the end of the game to solve problems around their factories they might not want to deal with as much at that point".
 * It is the only ore that doesn't have a stack size of 100.
