Iflisalt

Iflisalt was a naturally occurring volcanic rock on the planet Siline. It looked like smoky gray quartz and occurred inside crystal veins. It was especially dominant in an area on the planet called the Badlands, where an ecological catastrophe that had caused structural collapses of the crust, had occurred around 234 BBY, with veins leading into the Heart of Siline. Iflisalt was highly useful for the stabilization of combustion chambers for various hypermatter fuels. A female member of the Graf family arrived shortly after the catastrophe and set up the Graf-Siline Industries Consortium to mine the exposed iflisalt and over the year the company developed proprietary technology for the better extraction, processioning and application of the rock and also researched ways to synthesize it. In around 134 BBY, the Consortium was close to finalizing the technologies for the synthesization and improved extraction that would allow to access about 95% of iflisalt, and the Consortium and the Silinese War Council hoped to use it to Silines' advantage during the negotiations with the Galactic Republic.
