Moon mining: Difference between revisions

Line 91:

The five different classes of moon ores are as follows: ubiquitous, common, uncommon, rare, and exceptional. In addition to the classic minerals that other ores provide, some materials required for T2 construction can only be found in moon ores. Like the normal asteroid ores, moon ores also have basic, improved, and excellent quality types. However, moon ore quality more strongly affects the reprocessed minerals received. The improved ores yield a 15% bonus, while the excellent ores provide a 100% bonus on minerals received through reprocessing.

Unlike with the regular asteroid ores that can be mined from moons, moon-specific ores are often of mixed quality, with the same moon pull containing both regular and improved quality. However there is a chance, at the time of detonating a moon chunk, that there will be a bright blue flash - this has come to be known as a "jackpot" and indicates that the moon ores for that ~~pull~~ will '''''all''''' be of the excellent quality instead.
