Carbonic asteroid chunk is a resource gathered by asteroid collectors and processed in crushers. It is the main source for carbon, used to make thruster fuel, and sulfur. It is dropped from carbonic asteroids, which is the second most common asteroid when traversing between the first 4 planets. It can also be used in asteroid reprocessing.

As asteroid chunks stack size is only 1, belts can hold more chunks per tile (8) than cargo bays.
