Prepare for the local cold, explore cold areas, and inspect resource rocks for a Cobalt label before drilling. The update associates Cobalt with cold areas but also notes variation in resource models and locations.

Stop once you have enough Cobalt for the current plan, or leave the area if the cold risk outweighs the value of continuing without confirmed sources.
