The route from Alabama to Freeport 10 is already a well documented one, so there is no need to revisit that in this report. The flight from Freeport 10 to Omicron Lost was also mildly uneventful other than the slight presence of light AI drones.
■
As clearly shown they did fire upon the Cognitionis but their weapons seemed rather ineffective. Some among the crew have speculated that these were warning shots rather than an attempt to actually damage the vessel. Unscathed we made our way to Omicron lost via the Jump hole located at the intersection of grid coordinates B, C, 2 and 3 within the Omicron Delta System.
■
Transport via the jump hole was pleasantly surprising. The hole itself appears to be very stable and may make an ideal candidate for a Core controlled Jumpgate in the future. Once arriving in Omicron Lost the Obelisk was within visual range almost instantly. This coupled with the systems central white dwarf make the system incredibly easy to navigate by visuals alone.

We made our way towards the mineral extraction zone by navigating around the systems native white dwarf to the "the Lachesis Field" located with G, 4 of Omicron Lost.
■
After arriving in the Lachesis Field, the known Iridium rich deposit within the system, we began a short patrol of the surrounding area. The loose small rock formations appear densely around the obelisk and sparingly throughout the rest of field.
■
The Cognitionis, lacking any adequate mining equipment, took longer than expected to obtain the required sample, but a sample was taken back to Alabama nevertheless.

Conclusion

---

The mineral extraction site is easy to reach and visually stunning. Although tests are yet to be made, the ore appears to be simple to extract and very valuable. The presence and potential warning shots of the light AI craft we encountered is a concern. It is possible that the shots we received were simple warning shots and that increased Core| presence within Omicron Lost may trigger more regular activity from the AI vessels and even potentially damaging consequences. As such no Mustang Technologies agent is to venture into Omicron Lost without an escort, at least until further information regarding the AI presence has come forward.

Referred to as the Obelisk or humorously "the upside down obelisk" due to its
lengthy shape and being smaller at one end than the other.
