What GeneralTank said, and also:
Would be cool if these items were behind the research for Cryogun or Hypercooling 2, and required Cryonite Rods, Cryonite Slush, and/or Supercooled Thermofluid to craft the ammo. Cold biter loot being used to refine into Cryonite seems like a good idea, but it shouldn't yield too much. It would basically guarantee that Cryonite was available in any frozen and hostile environment, so it should be a fairly low amount; alternatively if they yield specifically Cryonite Slush then it cannot be turned into Cryonite Rods and is only useful for a limited amount of the normal uses for Cryonite.
Likewise, Explosive Biters could yield stuff which can be converted into Vulcanite Blocks, or perhaps just Pyroflux in order to limit what can be done with it.
