I'm curious why the bit about other ores in sheets was removed, rather than moved to the real world section? It is slightly tangential, but I think it's still basically on point. It also is more accurate, since the statement about magnetite being the only processable ore in large sheets, while correct with respect to an unmodified game, is somewhat misleading. This wiki has plenty of interesting but tangential facts like this, and I think it's the better for them. --[[User:Oddrune|Oddrune]] 04:18, 3 June 2009 (UTC) | I'm curious why the bit about other ores in sheets was removed, rather than moved to the real world section?
