The AMC is now on it's 5th location, with all previous locations now closed, but still remaining classified.

*What is the AMC? - ''If you didn’t read the first section for whatever reason, here’s a quick run-down to what the AMC is: The Amarr Mining Camp is an organized group of Miners who have travelled down to Amarr Space to gain access to the better ores of the game. This allows us to make a higher income from mining than we would achieve if we were up in Aldrat (E-UNI HQ).''

*How do I join the AMC? - ''In short; you don't. The Amarr Mining Camp is running within EVE University. We follow all the same rules and guidelines as anyone else in the Uni. As such, you will not need to leave E-UNI to join us. Simply join our Chat Channel (Amarr Mining Camp - use the same password as other E-UNI channels) and ask if there is a fleet going, or start one yourself!''

A roster of current AMC staff is available in the [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Ao3i07DncK1hdHhiOHduTXBNREU1dWl2SHZ2cjFCSmc#gid=19 Endeavour Spreadsheet].

You are encouraged to join the AMC chat channel (name: Amarr Mining Camp, password: same as standard E-Uni channels). We would also highly recommend you join the Industry.E-Uni chat channel, the industry channel is visited by experienced miners and manufacturers that are not in the AMC. [[Mumble]] is also welcomed.

====Recommended Skills & Ships====

The '''Amarr Mining Camp''' is currently open to all E-UNI students and is running within EVE University itself. We follow all the same rules and guidelines as anyone else in the UNI - as such, you will not need to leave E-UNI to join us. Simply join our Chat Channel (Amarr Mining Camp - use the same password as other E-UNI channels) say “Hi!”, and ask if there is a fleet going, and if not; start one yourself!

=== Shared Can ===

In ‘[[Participating_in_a_Mining_Op#Types_of_Mining_Ops|Shared Can]]’ operations, the fleet commanders need to keep track of each person’s contribution. In the AMC, this is measured by the time each member spent mining. Follow the simple steps below to ensure you get the correct payout for the fleet:

When changing belts or re-targeting asteroids, you need not give a lasers off. Lasers off is only required for when you are stopping when everyone else is continuing.

For ‘[[Participating_in_a_Mining_Op#Types_of_Mining_Ops|Shared Can]]’ operations, you will be mining into jetcans, which the Haulers will collect to haul back to station. Try to share a can with somebody when possible, but if there are none in reach then just create your own. We have a naming scheme for jetcans, as follows:

For detailed information on participating in a mining operation see [[Participating in a Mining Op]].

Similar as miners, haulers need to announce the times when they start hauling or stop hauling, so the fleet commander can payout the haulers based on the time they were hauling.  

At the end of the operation, or when you stop hauling, you contract all the ore you've hauled at the station to the fleet commander.

As an AMC FC, it is required for you to keep track of your Fleet; recording each member's participation, share weights, amount of ore mined, prices of ore, etcetera. The easiest, and preferred way to do this is to use a Spreadsheet - namely the '[[AMC_Buyback_Spreadsheet]]'. It's not as hard as it sounds - it's actually pretty simple, so please do not be afraid of becoming a Fleet Commander because of the Spreadsheet business. If you ever get stuck, just ask around and there's bound to be someone who can give you a hand.

When your Fleet is running, you have the opportunity to create an MOTD (Message of the Day). You can place some important information on the MOTD for the whole Fleet (especially new joiners) to see; for example:

If you would like to contribute to the AMC, please feel free to contact  any of the above mentioned organisers.

==Services==

If you are an AMC Miner or Fleet Commander that has run an operation or have simply been solo-mining but don't want to go through the hassle of hauling, refining and then selling the ore yourself then you’re in luck. As an AMC student, you are able to take advantage of the ‘Buy-Back’ program. You can find full instructions [http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/AMC_Buyback_Spreadsheet here]

If you're concerned that you don't have the best ship for mining or can't contribute to a mining fleet, worry not, the AMC is offering a free [[Venture]] and the following list of T1 modules to fit your ships:

NOTE: We are no longer able to give away free retrievers due to the increase in cost, but instead we are able to loan them out on a 2-week basis following the same rules as the uni loaner fleet [[Mining Loaner Fleet]] and also to purchase at a slightly reduced cost.

A lottery is conducted for every shared can mining fleet in which all participants have a random (equal) chance of winning a T2 module from the following list:
