fct.term.recipe_molten_iron

Molten iron is a metallurgy recipe that converts raw materials into 500 units of Molten iron in 32 seconds; it consumes 50 Iron ore and 1 Calcite per cycle and must be processed in a Foundry. This recipe links ore processing to the molten-metal production chain, supplying Molten iron as an intermediate fluid for downstream metalcasting and smelting operations. The Foundry is the required crafting machine, and the ratio of inputs to output defines throughput planning when integrating this recipe into production lines.
