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 (possibly similar to the vision [[Elend Venture]] has when burning atium with duralumin during the [[Battle of Hathsin]]);{{file ref|Hemalurgy table.jpg|Hemalurgy Table}}{{file ref|Table of Allomantic Metals.jpeg|Allomancy Table}}{{wob ref|15595}} the Feruchemical powers of refined atium are unknown. This refined atium is also produced in the reaction between harmonium and trellium.{{wob ref|15969}}
