The Advanced Extractor is the upgrade of a Metal Extractor on the same deposit: twin drills that double its output for double the power draw.
How to use
Upgrade your safest deposits first, the ones inside the base, since the upgrade is lost with the building. It is the best mid-game investment when every free deposit is already taken. Watch the power meter as you upgrade several: each one draws twice what it did.
