'''Torval Mining Ltd''', formerly known as '''Torval-Mastopolos Mining''', is an [[Empire|Imperial]] mining [[Corporations|corporation]] based in [[LTT 198]]. It was originally created by [[Senator]] [[Zemina Torval]] as an autonomous branch of [[Mastopolos Mining]] in August 3307 after Torval, then the majority shareholder of Mastopolos Mining, decided to burnish her legacy for the benefit of [[Torval family|her children]]. Senator Torval appointed her daughter, [[Constantia Torval]], as the branch's operations director. Torval Mining Ltd continued to operate under the Mastopolos Mining umbrella until October 3307, when it became a fully independent company and Senator Torval assumed the role of CEO. In addition to headquarters facilities in Torval Orbital and on the planet Dini in LTT 198, Torval Mining Ltd also operates a fleet of [[megaship]]s. | '''Torval Mining Ltd''', formerly known as '''Torval-Mastopolos Mining''', is an [[Empire|Imperial]] mining [[Corporations|corporation]] based in [[LTT 198]].

The corporation attempted an ambitious expansion into [[Federation|Federal]] territory in January 3308 and made a bid to secure a 10-year contract with multiple small companies in the vicinity of the Dulos system to exclusively supply them with raw materials. However, Dulos was the stomping grounds of Federal mining megacorporation [[Caine-Massey]], which had held the contract for the previous decade and took offense to what it viewed as Imperial aggression. Caine-Massey rallied its supporters and surpassed Torval Mining Ltd's bid, renewing the contract until 3318. | |||

*<nowiki>*</nowiki>Pilots' Federation ALERT*<br/>The [[Caine-Massey]] corporation has beaten Torval Mining Ltd to retain a mining contract in the Dulos system. Competing campaigns were waged by the two rivals for the rights to supply ore and mined materials to many local subsidiaries. [[Johann Fleischer]], vice president of Caine-Massey, declared their victory: "We wish to thank the large number of pilots who delivered [[bromellite]], [[samarium]] and [[gallite]]. Thanks to your hard work, our contract has been renewed for another decade. I like to think that we have also secured the honour of the [[Federation]] by stalling the [[Empire]]'s plans." Rewards for contributors to Caine-Massey are now available for collection at Smith Port in the Dulos system. Torval Mining Ltd also received many deliveries of materials but in insufficient quantities to secure the contract. [[Constantia Torval]] has confirmed that the pilots who supported their initiative can collect payment at the Pride of Bitterwood megaship.<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/61e95e03eae3b426364c4064 GalNet: Caine-Massey Wins Mining Contract]</ref> | |||

*<nowiki>*</nowiki>Pilots' Federation ALERT*<br/>[[Caine-Massey]] and Torval Mining Ltd are running rival campaigns to deliver mined commodities to the Dulos system. For the past decade, the [[Mega Corporation|megacorp]] Caine-Massey has supplied ore and other raw materials to several subsidiaries in the region. But with the contract up for renewal, Torval Mining Ltd is making a bid for the lucrative business. [[Constantia Torval]], operations director for the [[Empire]]-based company, outlined the initiative: "We are calling upon pilots to provide the following mined materials: [[bromellite]], [[samarium]] and [[gallite]]. These should be delivered to the Pride of Bitterwood in the Dulos system. Your assistance will directly support our proposal to win this contract and expand our entire enterprise." Caine-Massey published a similar request from its vice president, [[Johann Fleischer]]: "The citizens within this region deserve a high standard of service, and we aim to continue meeting their needs. The Green Party of Dulos, acting on our behalf, shall offer generous rewards for shipments of mined bromellite, samarium and gallite delivered to Smith Port in the Dulos system." The corporate distributors within the region have agreed that whichever candidate is able to provide the greatest amount of materials will be awarded the contract for the next decade.<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/61e036d3802f34015e69ec14 GalNet: Corporations Compete for Mining Contract]</ref> | *<nowiki>*</nowiki>Pilots' Federation ALERT*<br/>[[Caine-Massey]] and Torval Mining Ltd are running rival campaigns to deliver mined commodities to the Dulos system.
