Magnite is a Crafting Mineral that can be aquired by mining it. It can also be stored on the Personal Inventory and Team Depository. It can be bought on the Mineral Trade Terminal for 150 Credits, chunks of it can be acquired (only on Glacial Strata, Magma Core and Sandblasted Corridors) via Huuli Hoarders, Cargo Crates or near Lost Packs.
When the mission is concluded, the Hazard Bonus will dictate how many units the player will get. It is sometimes required to buy equipments, modifications, vanity items and Overclocks. It can be sold for 50 Credits in the Mineral Trade Terminal.
Magnite is a large, thick, shiny, dark brown crystal structure dotted by small black crystals along its surface. It grows out of the ground at various angles, usually making it easy to find and mine.
Magnite chunks use the same model as Gold, and Dystrum.
The number of Magnite crystals spawned in a mission is calculated using 3 values:
Biome range: for Magnite, Abudant biomes have a value of 15 to 25, and Scarce biomes have a value of 5 to 15 (including decimals)
Mission Scale: each mission type have a different value (see table)
Carver: for Magnite it is 7
the final value is calculated with the following formula:
(Biome range x Mission Scale) / Carver
ending in 0.5 or higher will round it up, otherwise it rounds down.
Cave generation might affect crystals spawned in rare cases. Escort Duty generation always drastically reduce the number spawned.

Trivia
Magnite, due to its name and coloration, is most likely based off of the real-world counterpart Magnetite, which is a semi magnetic mineral, and the chief industrial ore for iron manufacture.
