Source

This building becomes available after you have learned the Metallurgy 3 tech.

Cost

Built in a Compound. Uses 7x7 cells.

Use

A Gyration Cell holds up to 1500 ore and 50 Charcoal.

1500 ore, 50 Charcoal for 15 minutes yields 150 metal.
750 ore, 50 Charcoal for 15 minutes yields 75 metal.
In general, X ore, 50 Charcoal for 15 minutes yields X/10 metal.

Be careful : if you open the gyration cell while functioning, all the ore and charcoal will be wasted, only the metal already produced will remain.

Yield

Ore Used CC Used Metal Yield Time opened Ore Cost/Metal
1500 50 150 15 mins 10
100 50 10 15 10
1000 50 100 15 mins 10

Conjecture:1500/150=10 implies that 10 ore cooked for 15 minutes will yield 1 metal. But this is without rounding. With rounding, you get 5 ore yields 1 metal, 15 ore yields 2, n*10-5 ore yields n metal, etc. in 15 minutes. Of course, with the cooking cost being 50 CC, extra efficiency comes at a high cost in the renewable charcoal.
