=== Asteroid belts ===

Virtually every star system in ~~Eve~~ (with the notable exception of [[Jita]]) has at least one asteroid belt. Most star systems have several -- up to more than a dozen in some cases. These belts are listed on the [[overview]] and the right-click menu, and always have the same geometry: a rough semicircle of asteroids, approximately 50 km in diameter. A ship warping to an asteroid belt's beacon (through the right-click menu or the overview) will warp to the center of the semicircle. Note that mining lasers have an (unboosted) range of only 10-15 km, so in order to mine asteroids a ship has to fly closer to the belt after warping in. If you want to save on travel time, you can warp to mining bookmarks instead.

A given belt will have a mixture of asteroids containing different ores. The mixture and size of the asteroids (i.e. how much ore each asteroid contains) is determined by the system's location in the Eve universe and its security status (see [[#Asteroid distribution|asteroid distribution]] below). The asteroids in a belt will respawn after downtime. The website [http://evemaps.dotlan.net/ Dotlan] ~~have~~ maps showing the number of belts per system.
