-- Glittery ores, provide a mix value, and all patches outside uranium will be a full mix.
-- Gameplay comment 9/22/2017 -- After a playtest,  we learned that at 1:1 ratio of iron/copper
-- creates a LARGE amount of extra copper from the start. Also a 4:1 ratio for stone is quite heavy.
-- Suggest modifying the sprinkle_factor out of 100% to make for a less game about warehousing ore,
-- to one about picking patches that are mostly the preferred ore, along with a % of the wrong ores.
