The current elemental ores give elemental attack boosts, but can't be used for casting tools. Conduiz can, but doesn't have nearly as much of a stat gain, since being able to be used for a casting tool is extremely useful. Therefore, they're seperated to give non-mages a higher weapon-focused stat boost (while still using elemental attack for non-spells), but allowing those who do want to focus in two kinds of spells to do so (giving more versatility at the cost of losing a 4-bonus and gaining a durability decrease).
