    So like where do they put it? Do they break it down into non metal, does it get placed elsewhere, or leech back into the soil from their corpse?

      They accumulate it in a specific organ, but they aren’t magical alchemy machines. It stays in their bodies until they die, then they decompose and it goes back into the ground.

        Need a new survival craft game where you can tame isopods to collect precious metals.
