When Captain [[Jonathan Archer]] told Gralik what the kemocite was being used for, he sabotaged the shipment rather than let it be used in a weapon. In addition, [[T'Pol]] and Ensign [[Hoshi Sato]] altered the radiolytic signature of a canister in the shipment, creating a tracking signature that could be followed by [[Enterprise (NX-01)|''Enterprise'']].

''Kemocite'' ore was a substance used on [[Federation]] [[starship]]s in the [[24th century]], too. In [[2375]], the [[USS Equinox]], which was stranded in the [[Delta Quadrant]], had a supply of 2 kilotons of Kemocite ore, which were due to be transferred to the [[USS Voyager]] after the decision was made to abandon the ship.

Canisters of processed kemocite

Kemocite is a multiphasic isotope of a radiolytic compound. It has many applications depending on its level of refinement; the highest level of refinement ever achieved was less than six parts per million of impurities.

One place that refined kemocite was a Xindi-Arboreal colony in the Delphic Expanse. Its prime technician was Gralik Durr. In 2153 this facility supplied kemocite to Degra for use in constructing the Xindi superweapon.

When Captain Jonathan Archer told Gralik what the kemocite was being used for, he sabotaged the shipment rather than let it be used in a weapon. In addition, T'Pol and Ensign Hoshi Sato altered the radiolytic signature of a canister in the shipment, creating a tracking signature that could be followed by Enterprise. (ENT: "The Shipment")

Kemocite ore was a substance used on Federation starships in the 24th century, too. In 2375, the USS Equinox, which was stranded in the Delta Quadrant, had a supply of 2 kilotons of Kemocite ore, which were due to be transferred to the USS Voyager after the decision was made to abandon the ship.
