Spinmetal

"A filigree of bubbled metal grown by wild colonies of Golden Age cytoconstructors."

- In-game description

Catenated-virtual-particle long-range spin-coupled nucleon material, colloquially called Spinmetal, is a material that can be found and collected by Guardians while exploring the Cosmodrome and the Plaguelands. Spinmetal occurs randomly in some areas in the form of Spinmetal Leaves, which can be harvested by Guardians. Spinmetal may also be awarded to Guardians for completing a Daily Heroic Story Mission or a Patrol bounty.

Twenty Spinmetal may be purchased from Roni 55-30 in the Tower Hangar in exchange for ten Legendary Marks.

In Destiny 2, Spinmetal Leaves are a material that can be found and collected by Guardians while exploring the Cosmodrome. They are found across the terrain and in chests, which can be harvested or opened by Guardians. They are also awarded for completing bounties from Shaw Han.

Spinmetal Leaves are occasionally featured in Rahool's rotating stock of materials. On these days, they can be purchased in batches of 5 for one Legendary Shard, or a batch of 25 Spinmetal Leaves can be traded for 10,000 Glimmer.
