Items

Bismuth is a metal. Its main use is as a component of bismuth bronze. On its own, it is only used to make plates for lanterns.

Obtaining

Bismuth can be smelted into ingots.

Ores

There is only one ore of bismuth in the game, bismuthinite. It can occur in any igneous or metamorphic rock layer, as both a shallow and a deep ore.

Usage

Bismuth nuggets should be mixed with zinc and copper to create bismuth bronze. Bismuth ingots on their own can only be smithed into plates, whose only current use is for lantern creation.

Alloys

Bismuth nuggets should be mixed with zinc and copper to create bismuth bronze at a ratio of 10-20% bismuth, 20-30% zinc and 50-70% copper. Bismuth bronze
