The types of ore that can be found in a system's asteroid belts are determined by a code called the security class of the system. You cannot find out a system's security class directly in-game, but the value is present in the Eve database dumps. In | The types of ore that can be found in a system's asteroid belts are determined by a code called the security class of the system. You cannot find out a system's security class directly in-game, but the value is present in the Eve database dumps. In null security space, you can deduce a system's security class from the region it is in, and the truesec of the system. | ||
The security class is a letter from A to J, optionally followed by a number from 1 to 7. For example, Jita is a class "A" system, and S-U8A4 is class "J2". Generally, the higher the number, the better the ore. All security classes are viewable on dotlan via the filters on the region maps. | The security class is a letter from A to J, optionally followed by a number from 1 to 7.
