Initiated by E-UNI miners Ubermensch Invictus, Seranti Olerie and Vger Starseed in March, 2012 so that they can "haz" Pyroxeres to satiate the demand of Pyrox jewelled necklaces for their many e-girlfriends (because they were such popular, sexy and social miners) and to escape the broken game feature that is omber, the Amarr Mining Camp (AMC) was born. It has in a short span of time become the premiere (and only) mining camp within the UNI.

The [b]real[/b], non-RP purpose of the AMC was to allow E-UNI miners the opportunity to mine the ore Pyroxeres because it is the highest valued ore in all of highsec in terms of ISK/hr (http://forum.eveuniversity.org/viewtopic.php?f=45&t=25250&start=0 current as of 03/2012). Unfortunately, Pyroxeres is not available in Metropolis space where Aldrat (E-UNI HQ) is, it is only available in Caldari and Amarr regions. The AMC was started in Amarr space at its current classified HQ because it presented an ideal balance of: a decent distance from Aldrat, reasonable distance from a major market hub, an abundance of asteroids with high quality ores (+5 and +10 ores) in a very quiet constellation with a 50% refinery station that is far away from low security systems and any ice belts (popular for gankers). Organizing miners at a single location also makes it easier for miners to combine their efforts into shared can mining fleets that get bonuses from the many Orca pilots gathered there. This provides newer E-UNI miners the opportunity to make much more ISK while in a fleet as opposed to solo mining and is thus highly encouraged. An impressive number of miners, haulers, Orca boosters, Freighters and perfect refiners have been amassed at the AMC resulting in more or less daily shared can mining fleet operations in addition to frequent Bring-Your-Own-Can (BYOC) operations.

The AMC represents a tremendous opportunity for newer E-UNI miners to make some great ISK and learn valuable skills in the art of mining.
