History & Usage
Refinement
The data inside raw Siligraphite cannot be extracted until it's surface is completely cleaned and polished from foreign dirt and debris. Attempting to extract from an unrefined stone can result in damaging the integrity of the data inside.
Hazards
If the data extracted contains any corruption, the crystal can cause mental and/or physical damage to the I-Mage handling it. This kind of sickness cannot be transferred to any other type of Cier, but once infecting an I-Mage the sickness can spread throughout the population. There have been instances where crystals are also known to combust or explode as well if not properly examined beforehand. Crystals that are found to be corrupted are quarantined and disposed of by proper Anti-Threat Order officials.
Show spoiler
The Ministry takes corrupted crystals at an undisclosed site where they supposedly dump them safely into the ocean below for disposal.
