Dedlanite, a mineral, served as a component in the construction of blasters. This substance was located within the Andelm beetle caverns situated on the planet known as Andelm IV. In the era of the Galactic Civil War, the crime lord named Jaum compelled miners to extract dedlanite, subsequently selling it to the Galactic Empire. Decades (Years) afterward, the First Order utilized dedlanite in blaster production and engaged in its extraction from asteroids at a location called Station Theta Black.
