Not the deep 0.0 ores like spodumain/bistot/etc.
Not the empire space ores like plag/scordite/veldspar/pyroxes.
But Hedbergite, Hemorphite, Jaspet, and Gneiss lack value for the risk it takes to get them. Its one of the reasons why people mine in empire space--Scordite is worth 80% of what Jaspet is per m3.
Here's my idea:
Raise Omber mineral yield by 20%.
Raise Jaspet mineral yield by 60%.
Raise Hedbergite/Hemorphite/Kernite/Gneiss mineral yield by 100%.
That simple. This alone will cause a huge migration of miners into near-empire 0.0 and 0.1-0.4 systems.

And at the same time that would leave asteroid in 0.5+ for newbies to mine, instead of empty asteroid belt.

Maybe if the asteroid respawn was such that there actually was any Hed, Hem or Jas in 0.4 to 0.1 more people would mine there.
I would say that well over half of the belts I check have already had these rocks mined to pebbles.
The there is the fact that these are the ore's that are regional not all can be found in all regions.
Not true. My corp is based in a portion of Sinq Laison and there are THOUSANDS of jaspet roids EVERYWHERE.

Omber is present in 0.5+, look for it.
However I do agree, I mine pyroxeres/kernite instead of Jaspet simply because it is safer to mine in 0.5/0.6 space. There are simply too many powerful npcs (and pcs) in 0.4 space for a freelance or small corp cruiser to be bothered with it.
EDIT: I like Danton's idea... might be wise to put that in the idea lab, I will do that now.
Yup, omber is all over 0.5 if you look in the right places.
