To Mother Lode or Mother load ?

[MarshDog]

Me the non spelling one noticed that on mother lo(a)d's or steel and cobalt are spelled lode vs load ?

a mother lode is the principal vein or lode of a region. So "mother lode" is the correct spelling on that vein you come across.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mother_lode It's the correct spelling, as TheRock said.

Considering you specified ores other than silver and gold, though, as mother lode usually refers only to that, I guess the devs just spread the meaning out more so things don't get too confusing with there being mother lodes of gold and mother loads of cobalt.

Well , I guess that does make sense to use just one name on different nodes.
Thanks
Andy.
