Metallurgic International was a large corporation involved in mining and defensive technology[1] on Earth before the Faro Plague.
History[]
Bashar Mati's father died in an effort to protect a claim by the company to a tantalum mine.[2] His mother later married Wyatt Mahante, a high-ranking executive of the company. She started seeing Wyatt after meeting him to discuss her injuries caused by a Lifter in one of M.Int's mines. She later died due to being exposed to LuBor-6, a chemical in solvents she used to clean robot joints.
At one point, Metallurgic International was headquartered in Colorado Springs.[3]
Other Activities[]
In addition to mining, Metallurgic International had a sports team, the Metallurgists. They played at the Denver Stadium, where Bashar Mati watched the game with his mother and his stepfather.[4]
They also had a hand in politics, backing candidate Lacy Almodovar during her campaign against Barney Atami even though she took an anti-corporate stance and announced her intention to overturn the controversial Supreme Court case Schott v. Frost during her campaign.
