Saki was conducting a materials engineering analysis of the control core with a back door.
This is a sample that Jin obtained when he repaired a golem at the mayor's house in the town of Urau.

"Even my sister Saki can't do it?"

"That sounds like Saki. So, what else did you find out?
"The origin of these magical crystals."

Did you find out?
Of course. Of course. They're not synthetic, that's why each region has its own unique characteristics.
Impurities?

Yes, that too. And the crystal structure, for example.
Saki said that she had compared these characteristics of the different regions.

"Around here."

Saki, who had prepared a map of the Laurent continent, pointed to a point on the map.
It was a mine located in the eastern part of the Kingdom of Cerroa, south of the Rivas region, near the border with the Kingdom of Egelea.

"The Hoopla Mine?"
"Yes. It is most likely from here.

To reach the Hoopla Mine from the town of Ula'u, follow the road southwest to the town of Ixpi. From there, turn southeast and go south from the town of Fatai.
You will arrive at the Hoopla Mine.

It is an excellent mine that produces many magi crystals. It contains about 0.0001% lithium as a characteristic impurity.
So you're saying that the control core in the sample contained lithium.
"That's what I'm saying. As far as I know, there are no other mines that produce magi crystals containing lithium.

By the way, an impurity of 0.0001 percent is nothing to worry about from a magical engineering point of view.
It is only at about 0.01 percent that they begin to have an effect.

In other words, the magecrystals here are pure enough and of high performance.

And the old man immediately started his own investigation.

The mines here are mined in a series of tunnels alongside each other on what appears to be a fault cliff. The tunnels were numbered in order, with M1 in the east (M for Mine).
Due to its format, the tunnels are characterized by vertical rather than horizontal branches.

For example, the first tunnel is dug almost horizontally, and when it branches off in the middle, a side passage is made, but instead of extending horizontally, it immediately turns downward and is dug at an angle.

The remaining 6 tunnels are privately operated.
