== Economy ==
The presence of rich mineral deposits near Luthadel{{book ref|mb3|63}} allows for a large mining industry. The mined metal ore is then brought to the hundreds of forges and refineries in Luthadel, where it is turned into useful metals.{{book ref|mb1|2}} As a result, metal is Luthadel's main export product.{{book ref|mb1|2}}
Luthadel's second natural advantage is the presence of the [[River Channerel]], it's flow through the city provides excellent opportunity to mills, used for both grinding grains and making textiles.{{book ref|mb1|2}} Besides allowing for mills, the river also is an effective mode of transport and trade, as it is connected to the Final Empire's wide canal network.{{book ref|mb1|1}}{{book ref|mb1|8}}
The empire's money currency is called a boxing, a coin made of gold.{{book ref|mb1|27}} The smallest denomination of coin is a clip,{{book ref|mb1|7}} made of bronze.{{book ref|mb1|30}} Golden ten-boxing coins are also used.{{book ref|mb1|6}}{{book ref|mb2|6}} The coins have a picture of Kredik Shaw on their back, or the "box" as it was called, leading to the coin's name.{{book ref|mb2|part=ars}}
'''Notes'''
For reference: during the siege a bin of aging apples was sold for five boxings, but this was higher than usual and considered a premium.{{book ref|mb2|25}}
Boxings are made of gold. In each city, including Luthadel, is a small group of merchants who provide powdered metals to Allomancers, these metals can be considered pure because these merchants have a vested interest in keeping their (dangerous) customers satisfied.{{book ref|mb1|27}} <br>▼
There are fields around Luthadel, but a lot of the food was also imported from plantations. (needs citation)
