Diatium was a metal substance used in small power cells as early as four millennia BBY.
Lightsabers generally used cylindrical diatium power cells. It was not a very rare mineral, in that it was easy to mine for helpful use.
History[]
Throughout the time of the Old Republic Diatium was a rather easy mineral to find, but that ease was lost due to the excessive mining of the powerful mineral.
