[FWI] Real, working teleportation is invented but with distinct limits.

Post Body

After years of research a commercially viable teleportation system is developed but due to the limits of the physics being used to make it work it is only capable of teleporting material of a specific element it is calibrated for at the time. A warehouse full of iron ore or coal can be teleported instantly across the planet to a receiving facility (with the side benefit of leaving any physical impurities behind) but chemical compounds containing that element will not be teleported.

Regarding the technology itself, what happens when an impure substance is placed into the teleporter? Does just it give a 404 error and do nothing? Or does it violently strip the element out of the substance, teleporting the specific element and leaving the rest behind?

In this scenario it only works with the element in pure, non-molecular form bound with other substances. I'll allow leeway for molecular elements, such as O2 or carbon chains for example as the technology improves over time with an additional power requirements to work but anything chemically bound to a different element will fail to transport and simply remain behind. An non-chemical alloy like Bronze could be split up into it's components via this process for example.
