I've been flying around empire, checking asteroid belts, and as one would expect, they ll have one thing in common.
There's no veldspar, anywhere. There are belts whee the plag, scord, and pyro are untouched, and not a speck of veldspar is to be found.
"Wow, thanks captain obvious"
You're welcome, however this s reminding me of something I noticed on the first char I tried for ths game, who ran missions. I logged him and ran a couple level 1s in my kestrel and noticed something with the missions:
All the missions have veldspar roids, dozens of them.
So this has me wondering, how many more missions will we see people in, with their miner friends right behind them clearing those belts that were probably once ignored?
Oh, also, mining and industrialist, looking for mission running person to mine their missions.

You're not finding veldspar in belts?
Methinks you need to tweak your overview.

Doubtless people will try.
Been a long time but once when I tried to mine out a mission those big looking Veld roids turned out to be fairly low on mins. Pop pop pop pop in no time.
May have changed and perhaps some missions spawn better roids than others. Worth another go just to see I suppose but I am guessing they are not the gold mines you may think.
If you do try let us know. In this case I would be happy to be wrong.

level 2 mission "Unauthorised Military Presence" has plenty of veldspar asteroids with 40k+ units, including a whopper that's 4km radius, but only about 48k veld.
There are plenty of missions with significant quantities of ore. Now it's going to be worth my time mining them, even if only for one or two hours. The mission space significantly reduces the risk of can poppers - I just have to haul the ore back before the mission hunters find me.

So I run mission, then come back in salvager, then come back in industrial (cause the damn size of modules) and now come back in miner... no thx I am already turning down drone missions and I have enough AFKing doing the killing part and moving another ship without the shuttles is too much logistics. My personal trit consumption - including indirect - is fully covered by melting.

Took me 4 systems to find one with veldspar in it. Started in Sobaseki though so a couple of those jumps were in decently high population areas.

Personally, I love the Drone missions. Especially "Attack of the Drones." It doesn't take that long to loot/salvage them in a Stabber with 3 cargo expanders.

indeed, i generally keep to the large/medium wrecks though. can get enough trit from the t1 loot from other missions
and mining in missions is usually too much a pain in the ass... haulers/barges moving from entrance point to the roids is

That, my friend, is the crux of your problem. |

Posting in a another Veldspar thread
If there is no Veldspar, then I was there. |
