Rare would natives be found in the areas rich in ore, but a name did stick to the ore that bore curses of stench and fire- Volatite. Once found, the ore bears a chunky and uneven form typically in fistful sized nodes. They bear an acrid, vile stench that stings the eyes and nose to breathe in. With an ebony-black colour separating it from the stone surrounding it makes it separate itself rather clearly from the surrounding stone.

History
Appearance
The ore is incredibly dense and heavy, and most notably- incredibly unstable. A sudden amount of pressure, heat, or friction will almost certainly cause the ore to combust and to send piercing black shards out in every direction, alongside the concussive blast. The ore itself often pitches the nearby rock with a black, powdery substance that taints the area with the scent aforementioned. The ore bears a composition of sulfur in some degree, due to a vile and sour smell that emanates from the ore, and clings to the cold air in ore-rich environments.
Rarity
Volatite is generally found in arctic, cold tundra or environments. It would not be uncommon to find a steam geyser or hotspring near Volatite rich environments- a dormant volcano would not be out of the question, either. The ore often in rich deposits will cause spikes out of the ground, in unpredictable and unstable patterns. This is due to the veins of Volatite erode the rock surrounding, giving it an irregular, jagged and spiked appearance given from corrosion.
Usage
Volatite does not come with much usage in its raw form. Once harvested and refined it becomes what is known as Boomsteel.
