Each of these four quarters has its own set of asteroid types. Additionally, the lower the [[Security Rating|security rating]] of a system, the rarer the asteroid types that can be found there. Finally, each system can also include all the asteroid types of same-quarter higher-security systems; e.g. a Gallente system with a security rating of 0.7 will not only include Omber asteroids, but also Veldspar, Scordite, and Plagioclase asteroids. | Each of these four quarters has its own set of asteroid types.

In general, the rarer the ore, the higher its volume per unit (e.g. one unit of Veldspar has a volume of 0.1 m<sup>3</sup>, whereas one unit of Arkonor has a volume of 16 m<sup>3</sup>). Since mining lasers mine a given ''volume'' of ore per minute, it takes longer to mine the rarer ore types. Additionally, each ore refines into a different set of minerals; for details, see [[Refining]]. | In general, the rarer the ore, the higher its volume per unit (e.g. one unit of Veldspar has a volume of 0.1 m<sup>3</sup>, whereas one unit of Arkonor has a volume of 16 m<sup>3</sup>).

Note that mining Mercoxit requires the {{sk|Deep Core Mining}} skill as well as [[ORE Basic Ship and Skill Guide#High-slot modules|special mining modules]] (Deep Core Miners or Deep Core Strip Miners).
