Mission briefing

I do. And it's going to be a big haul. Demand for minerals is skyrocketing. All the big empires are stockpiling for the coming fight. Oh, come on, you've seen the signs! Ships, rockets, drones, fortifications — all these things take material. The skirmishes out in 0.0 aren't lessening the demand any, either. Which is good for us. More demand means more profit. To fill that demand, we're having to turn to some unorthodox ores. Green Arisite, for instance. I know of a large field that's full of the stuff. If you can get it for me, I'll make sure you're reimbursed. We just may be able to make some use of it, with the right tech. Who knows?

Ungated normal space pocket. Rats listed are Guristas, other factions spawn based on region.

Green Arisite
Green Arisite is relatively worthless because of the high costs of reprocessing; one is far better off mining Gneiss instead. As a result, you won't find the former ore on the market. If you're having trouble finding the Arisite at the mission location, just right-click the "Green Arisite" icon in your mission's Journal entry and select "Add to Overview."
