Mining

[David Grau]

Mining can be profitable if you know what you are doing and where to do it. The Grau family has Hersteller and her crew permanently in the Barrier Nebula mining Niobium. We lay fierce claim to the sector of the nebula where we mine because it makes us huge profits. Hersteller mines the resources while Corredor transports them to be sold, and by the time Corredor returns Hersteller has yet another full bay. The nebula is so rich and huge that we make much in profit. In fact, we make more with this than with some smuggling runs! Though if you are mining in our sector we will kill you :D The nebula is huge and we only claim one square sector, so there is really no need to mine in ours. Plus our sector is so remote we have never even been seen while mining.

There are many good places to mine, you just have to know where to mine and where to sell. Like if you mine organisms in Theta and take them to Cambridge research center.

Also speaking of mining, is it still set to ban a player if he mines in the silverton field and is hostile to Xenos?

Also with regards to the Junker field in Omega 15, yeah they do pay a lot and one night after making thirty mil there I decided it was a bit too much. So what I do then is I collect scrap from other places and bring it there and add some rp to it. For example, we may take scrap from the grande negra and take it to the Junker base in omega 15 (Bornholm) and sell it there. Or take scrap from other places where stuff happened in the history. The idea is to give it the rp that this "junk" left over from these explosions contains somethings of value and by taking them all the way to Bornholm we are receiving good money for these items. Another thing I do to make it rp to sell junk there is I mine it from regular scrap fields far away and "refine" it into something useful on the way there and then sell the "refined" product on Bornholm for much more than normal scrap is worth.

Now I know scrap is scrap no matter where you take it or collect it, but with the things I do above I think it really helps to bring rp to the fact that you get paid a lot for scrap at Bornholm. I could just mine near bornhom and sell there too, but like I say it is a bit much so I do what I can to still sell junk there, but bring rp into it. Some may call it crazy, but I love rp and will keep doing it.
