# Lithium

- **ID**: `WATERWORLD1`
- **What it is**: Localised Earth Element
- **Category**: Earth
- **Base value**: 72 units
- **Storage**: Store: 1 Raw - planetary. Store it in 1 Raw - planetary. Why: Same family as the guide's planetary raws.
- **Gettable**: needs seed: refinable once you have Quartzite or Crystallised Helium. Where: Deep-ocean planets in purple systems, or refine Crystallised Helium + Quartzite
