Remarks

Unity extracts the materials to the Materials folder, at the same level as the model file. Unity also extracts the embedded textures to the folder named \<modelName\>.fbm.
For example, if the model is Assets/Model/MyModel.fbx, then its materials are extracted to Assets/Model/Materials, and the embedded textures are extracted to Assets/Model/MyModel.fbm.
Note: if the Materials folder already contains a material with the same name as a material being extracted, Unity does not replace the existing material.
