The Unclassified Relic is an unknown artefact which can be produced at Thargoid Surface Sites in Thargoid Devices from Guardian Relics. Although it is of half-Thargoid origin, it does not exhibit the usual corrosive properties of other Thargoid artefacts, so it can be safely stored in normal Cargo Rack.

A Guardian artefact which does not match any currently established categorisation.

— In-Game Description

As of the 19th of August, Ishmael Palin and Ram Tah are currently launching a joint research initiative into the new artefacts, and are accepting deliveries of Unclassified Artefacts at their bases in the Arque and Meene systems respectively.[1] Professor Palin's preliminary studies suggest that exposure to Thargoid influence has somehow realigned the molecular structure of the relic's crystalline elements, resulting in a change in the EM signatures it emits along with the more obvious change in colouration.
