Soft metal used in microelectronics and energy weapons.

—In-Game Description

Gallium is a rare component that can be found on Mars and Uranus. It is usually found in quantities of one, but can also found with quantities of 2-4. It is most often found by defeating Lech Kril (Mars, War) or Tyl Regor (Uranus, Titania) rather than normal enemies.

This is most often used in crafting heavy weapons.

Trivia

• The Corpus letters stamped on the icon transcribe to Ga, the chemical symbol of Gallium.
  • The icon for Ferrite reuses the graphic of Gallium, but with a different texture and coloring.
• Gallium (symbol: Ga) is the 31st element in the periodic table. It is a metal element that is soft with a brilliant silver color in appearance, as opposed to its whitish-blue hue in-game. Elemental Gallium famously has a melting point slightly below the human body temperature. As suggested in Warframe, it is in use today in electronics due to its properties as a component of semiconductors.
• From Update 10.0 (2013-09-13) to Update 13.0 (2014-04-09), Gallium could also drop in the Orokin Void. It has since been replaced by Argon Crystals.
• Smokefinger theorizes that Gallium was a resource used in the manufacturing process of certain Dax Weapons, further explaining that it was also used in the creation of the Warframes themselves.
  • While Smokefinger's theory cannot be definitively proven, none of the Dax-related weapons added to the game so far use Gallium in their construction.
