Lead

Description
Lead is one of a number of complementary materials used for crafting recipes across the board. It primarily serves as one of the materials needed to craft the different tiers of batteries available for power storage towards the late game progression.

Naturally spawning Lead:
Lead can typically be found on most planets including Lush ones, although it seems to be found in larger concentrations on Metallic Moons.

Powder Sifter:
Sifting sand in the Powder Sifter has a small chance to yield Lead.

Furnaces:
By smelting Iron Ore in a Blast Furnace or an Arc Smelter, you have a small chance to obtain Lead.

Extraction Labs:

 * Extraction Lab: 4 Raw Minerals gives 1 Lead.
 * Extraction Lab MKII: 4 Raw Minerals gives 1 Lead.
 * Quantum Extraction Lab: 4 Raw Minerals gives 2 Lead.

Used in:
Notably, it can be used, along with a Chunk of Metal, as an alternative to combining Titanium and Silver bars into Durasteel bars.

Notes:
It is possible to create infinite lead via the Quantum Extraction Lab by extracting lead into raw materials, then extracting the raw materials back into lead.
