The Blood Angels will spare no effort to attain the material needed to create the [[Chapter]]'s art and have even fought wars to obtain them. This includes [[Bloodstone (Material)|Bloodstone]] gems from the deep caves of the '''Cruor Mountain''' on [[Baal]] and the larvae of the [[spinewyrm]] fauna. Bloodthirsty sand clams are also needed, as the white pigment used to paint the Chapter's angel wings can only be obtained by crushing clams' shells.{{Fn|57a}}
As travel to [[Mars]] has become quite perilous since the formation of the [[Great Rift]], most new Blood Angels [[Techmarines]] are trained on the [[Forge World]] of [[Unverrdt IX]].{{Fn|40b}}
