== Hemalurgic Use ==
When used as a Hemalurgic spike, atium is like a wild card.{{wob ref|5971}} Depending on where it is placed, it can steal any power (i.e., the ability to use an Invested Art, such as Allomancy or [[sand mastery]]){{wob ref|14896}} and it does so better than other spikes.{{wob ref|5971}} Atium must be [[#Refined Atium|refined]] to be used in Hemalurgy.{{file ref|Hemalurgy table.jpg|Hemalurgy Table}}
 
== Alloys ==
After the [[Catacendre]], atium Mistings no longer existed in the same way that they did before.{{wob ref|3000}}
 
[[Waxillium_Ladrian|Wax]] was later able to split [[ettmetalharmonium]] using [[trellium]] to create more atium, the effect of this separation is highly explosive, and only produces a small amount of atium.{{book ref|mb7|71}}{{book ref|mb7|15}} Following his discovery, [[kandra]] began repeating the process in order to produce more, under Harmony's orders.{{book ref|mb7|epilogue|4}}

Despite its name, the metal known as atium is not actually the pure form of Ruin's God Metal. Instead, atium is an alloy of [[electrum]] and that pure God Metal.{{wob ref|15299}}{{wob ref|15969}} Atium can be refined to extract Ruin's pure God Metal, which can be used in Hemalurgy to steal any power and when burned Allomantically grants a more expansive vision of the future than atium does;{{file ref|Hemalurgy table.jpg|Hemalurgy Table}}{{file ref|Table of Allomantic Metals.jpeg|Allomancy Table}} the Feruchemical powers of refined atium are unknown. This refined atium is also produced in the reaction between harmonium and trellium.{{wob ref|15969}}
