Azure plagioclase was made infamous in the melancholic song prose Miner Blues by the Gallentean folk singer Jaroud Dertier three decades ago.

Plagioclase is not amongst the most valuable ore types around, but it contains a large amount of pyerite and is thus always in constant demand. It also yields some tritanium and mexallon.

This ore is a compressed and much more dense version of the original ore.
