Trixite is a unique, extraterrestrial mineral that comes from outer space. It is commonly found in the End, and other rocky bodies found in space.

It appears to be composed of plutonium, cobalt, niobium, nitanium, and spark blend.

Production

It can be found in the End or mined with the asteroid mining ship as crystals.

Properties

Studies have shown that this mineral can only exist in crystalline form and any attempts to change its form have been met with failure.

Uses

Trixite can be processed directly in its ore form, either in a centrifuge or the SILEX:

  • The ore form, when processed in the SILEX, produces 9 iterations, with odds of: 20% plutonium powder, 30% niobium powder, 30% cobalt powder, and 20% nitanium blend. This requires an ultraviolet-tier laser crystal.

However, trixite can also be processed in an ore acidizer into crystals:

This refined form is far more useful, as processing it results in significantly more outputs than its ore form. More importantly, advanced machines like the electrolysis machine and the centrifuge gain nitanium blend as an output; the SILEX also gains spark blend, although it still requires an ultraviolet laser crystal.

  • At peak extraction efficiency, processed in the SILEX, the crystals produce 12 iterations of the following: 20% plutonium powder, 30% niobium powder, 30% cobalt powder, 10% nitanium blend, and 10% spark blend.

It is also minorly useful in a few 'exotic' recipes, such as the hardened terra drill:

Trivia

  • Trixite is a clear reference to the character Trixie from MLP, with both the name and deep blue color matching.
