Transium Ore

Transium Ore was a mineral used in the animated series The New Adventures of He-Man.

Transium Ore was one of the most valuable resources in the Tri-Solar Galaxy and was used primarily to power starships, including the giant Mutant Mothership. It could also function as an explosive in large quantities.

The Evil Mutants once hatched a plan to build up the amount of Transium Ore inside the ship while it was parked in the Oasis on Primus, so that it would be able to blast an explosion down into the planet and destroy the Inner Council.

The Mothership began to lift off after the Transium Bomb had reached it's tipping point. It then simply opened a cargo door at the bottom of the ship to let the bomb drop down to Primus and begin to drill it's way underground. However, He-Man used an energy line projected from his sword to grab the bomb, pull it out of the hole and return in with one powerful throw to where it had come from, causing the Mothership to explode.

When the central sun of the Tri-Solar System encased itself in a crystal shell to regenerate, the planet Primus began to freeze. It's sister planet Denebria was safe because it had large quantities of Transium Ore that could be used to warm up the planet. Skeletor offered the mineral to the Primans in exchange for their total surrender. He-Man refused and together with several other Galactic Guardians travelled to Gorn City to obtain the ore. After a fight against the Evil Mutants, the heroic Guardians took posession of a large shipment of the ore. Unfortunately, they had been tricked by Skeletor: this ore was phoney, or 'fools ore'.
