Mined some copper in O-7, and the yields were much under-level. Mined in the Southern Copper Field, for 10 minutes. Got just 431 ores. DSE ID/IFF, Hegemon.

There are 3 copper fields in O7: The field with the explosive gas (large circle south of Freistadt), the small field near Briesen, and the middle of the three smaller mining zones north of Freistadt. If you were in the field with the explosive gas, that one is low yield.

@Silmarillion: Until you can come up with a solution for the concentration, and subsequent poor behaviour that caused the admins to waste a lot of time on sanctions, your post contains no constructive value. The "rigmarole" is engineered towards making mining ABOVE trading profits, but FOR GROUP EFFORT ONLY. So if you feel to want to take out a hegemon and earn yourself another capship in a few days, then yea, you're out of luck and you will stay out of luck.

If you like to mine, you can still make a good buck doing so. If you need tips on where to go, ask for them. I'll give you one for free: Get out of Dublin. That's where all the newbies mine. Those fields are often just plain depleted. Working as designed.

As for it being complicated. Let me sum it up for you:
- Factions get bonuses based on where they are in respect to what resources are present.
- Small mining ships make more ore then large ones.
- Ore is teleported to your cargo hold, or that of a selected player ship.
- Fields grow weaker when mined but selfreplenish.
- You need to shoot rocks to get ore.

If in doubt - just refer to the last bullet there.
