==Overview==
 
==Overview==
Zettle Metals dates from a time before the [[Terran Alliance]] thus making it one of the oldest companies in the Lyran Commonwealth, producing purified precious metals and industrial alloys for use in civilian, commercial and military industries. Though all five of the company's foundries—three on [[Hyde]] and two more on [[Rahne]]—suffered heavy damage during the centuries of the [[Succession War era]], the company still soldiered on, its product vital to the construction of [[BattleMech]] chassis.<ref name=HSTLCp143/><ref name=HHSp140/>

In the [[Clan Invasion era]], Zettle's future appeared less certain despite signing a series of contracts to supply raw materials to factories on [[Hesperus II]], [[Skye]], and [[Solaris VII]], when numerous planetologists producing findings that the Hyde and Rahne's mineral wealth would be tapped before it could fulfill the full obligations of the lengthy contracts. By the [[FedCom Civil War]], prospectors working for Zettle discovered veins of industrial-grade metals on the nearby world of [[Arganda]], [[Fianna]], and [[Sarpsbourg]], with the company opening negotiations with the governments of these worlds to open new foundries to mitigate this issue.<ref name=HHSp140/>

During the [[Word of Blake]] [[Jihad]], Zettle expanded into the field of [[Retrotech]] BattleMech production, manufacturing a primitive variant of the ''[[Commando]]'' but also developing an entirely new design, ''[[Pathfinder (BattleMech)|Pathfinder]]''.<ref name=OLAp4>''Objectives: Lyran Alliance'', p. 4: "Alliance Overview - Retrotech Facilities (Limited Commercial Production by End of 3079)"</ref> While decidedly low quality when compared to many front line machines, the recon focused ''Pathfinder'' was readily snapped up by the [[Lyran Commonwealth Armed Forces|Lyran military]] during the period for their militia forces, [[Modern Mercenary Magazine|observers]] in [[3081]] expected that Zettle would not be likely to clear its backlog of orders for the Retrotech design until the early [[3090]]s.<ref name=XTRO:Rp4>''Experimental Technical Readout: RetroTech'', p. 4</ref>
