Note:
- Catalyst sorting does not produce slag.

- The most common usage is boosting Iron output (Saphirite + Jivolite).

Result: - SUCCESS. Crushed stone can provide 100% of all catalysts needed to run any base, with room to spare.
93
Note:
- All catalysts require mineral sludge.
94
- 3 products can convert to sludge: geodes, crushed stone, and slag.
95
- A factory utilizing 100% thermal refining (the final step) requires catalysts, but will generate no slag.
