However, by the time Moebius and his team first realized the dangers of Tiberium, the plant was reported to have already spread slowly but steadily over most of the planet. They saw that it might already be too late to warn the world about the dangers of Tiberium. The shortage in time, however, wasn't Moebius' greatest problem in convincing the authorities to take immediate steps in halting Tiberium growth. Tiberium seemed to absorb all soil nutrition and ground minerals almost like a sponge. The end result of this unique leeching process was the formation of Tiberium crystals, which consisted mainly of a high number of enriched minerals and metals.

Shortly after Moebius made this discovery, an unknown organization suddenly revealed to the international press to have been doing research on Tiberium ever since its arrival and developed a technique of efficiently harvesting these Tiberium crystals with a minimum of mining expense.

Immediately realizing that these harvesting techniques could make the Tiberium crystals into a resource of tremendous economical value, governments and petrochemical companies worldwide attempted to buy off the harvesting techniques from the organization for astronomical prices. Eventually leasing its harvesting equipment to the highest bidders (mainly the G7 nations) on large scales, the organization made sure to maintain its position as a monopolist on the rapidly increasing Tiberium resources, gaining immense financial resources. Within a matter of months, refined Tiberium far outgrew the value of both gold and oil on the world trade markets. The organization that developed the harvesting technology and was therefore directly responsible for this Tiberium gold-fever was a group referring to itself as:

"The Brotherhood of Nod"



that would rock, because according to C&C cannon, Nod was harvesting and researching Tiberium before Dr. Mobius even stumbled across the meteor he found.

NOW, with all that said, if you know ANYTHING about engineering, architecture, and manufacturing process', you know it takes more then one prototype and patent to create a sellable item. You don't magically whip out that awesome new item, and sell it on ebay 2 days later for everyone to use. And yes, for the non-readers, Nod made there money by selling Tiberium Refineries to the world.

*edited to highlight the keyword up there...
