The objective of Metaliminal Meteoroid sites is to mine out the large central asteroid while being attacked by hostiles. The hostiles do not need to be killed to complete the site.

The asteroid contains 3,~~500~~ units (14,000{{m3}}) of one of five mutanite ore types. This ore can be sold to NPC buyers in the region for an additional ~~17.5~~ million ISK. Residue (such as on Miner IIs) will help complete the site quicker at the cost of some lost ore.

The asteroid contains 5,000 units (20,000{{m3}}) of one of five mutanite ore types. This ore can be sold to NPC buyers in the region for an additional 25 million ISK. Residue (such as on Miner IIs) will help complete the site quicker at the cost of some lost ore.

The composition of the enemy forces varies from site to site, see [[Metaliminal_Meteoroid#Hostiles|Hostiles]] below. No new enemy ships will spawn unless any are destroyed, in which case they will eventually be replaced by reinforcements.

Some enemy ships will aggressively target drones. Mining drones are fragile!

{{Expansion past|Prior to [https://www.eveonline.com/news/view/patch-notes-version-23-02#h2-1 2026-03-19.1], the asteroid contained 3,500 units or 14,000{{m3}} of ore.}}

== Rewards ==

Rewards for Metaliminal Meteoroid sites come in two forms: (1) ISK payout upon site completion, and (2) one of five site-specific Mutanite ores that can be sold to NPC buy orders. Every site contains 17,~~500~~,000 ISK worth of Mutanite ores, not counting sales tax and residue. <gallery>

Rewards for Metaliminal Meteoroid sites come in two forms: (1) ISK payout upon site completion, and (2) one of five site-specific Mutanite ores that can be sold to NPC buy orders. ISK payout amount is less than other 5-pilot Homefront sites, giving the maximum payout per pilot of 12,000,000 ISK with a fleet of 5.

Every site contains 25,000,000 ISK worth of Mutanite ores, not counting sales tax and residue.
