Common values
Initial values for ores, bars, potions and "special list" items are simple averages of the list -- that is, one item from the list. Note that healing/mana potions aren't on the main potion list, but go with the "misc: items, similarly, "specials" are only the main list for the crate type, anything with its own chance to appear goes in "misc"   "Pro-rated" values are adjusted for chance-to-hit and number given.  Crate values are averages per crate.

Wood and iron crates offer all metals with equal odds. Later crates progressively omit low-tier metals.
