'''Smelting''' is the act of refining raw stone ore(s) into useful bars of pure metal(s) or alloys. Smelting is similar but distinct from [[melting]], which reclaims existing metal objects back into (fractional) bars. Metal bars produced at a [[smelter]] are usable in a wide variety of goods, from weapons to goblets to furniture to buildings. | '''Smelting''' is the act of refining raw stone ore(s) into useful bars of pure metal(s) or alloys.

[[Flux]] is a stone that is used in the production of [[pig iron]] and [[steel]]. 5 types of [[stone]] are classified as [[flux]]: [[Calcite]], [[chalk]], [[dolomite]], [[limestone]], and [[marble]]. All function the same way, so if a recipe requires [[flux]], any will do. | [[Flux]] is a stone that is used in the production of [[pig iron]] and [[steel]]. 5 types of [[stone]] are classified as [[flux]]: [[Calcite]], [[chalk]], [[dolomite]], [[limestone]], and [[marble]].
