Line 11:
It is recommended that players obtain system data from the Universal Cartographics in order to determine what asteroids are mineral rich and as close to "pristine" as possible which will ensure that the player gets the most 'bang for their buck'.
 
Some people prefer small, nimble ships for mining, as they are better able to maneuver around asteroids, in tight asteroid belts and rings at higher velocities. However others prefer the larger classes of ships such as the [[Python]], [[Imperial Clipper]], [[Federal Corvette]], and the [[Anaconda]], which while they are not as maneuverable, they can equip all the beneficial limpet drone controllers and carry a large number of drones for their use, while still having room for cargo and shields, increasing efficiency. Additionally, the larger classes of ships are better able to defend themselves from pirates while mining without sacrificing as much cargo capacity as smaller ships. The downside to using the larger ships mainly comes from their generally slower velocities and slower maneuvering.

This information can be found in the system map by targeting either the belt cluster or planet of interest. Planetary rings are labeled from inner to outer with descending letters starting from A.
 
Locations of planets with pristine metallic rings can be found [[Pristine Metalics|here]] and on [http://edtools.ddns.net/ Pristine Metallics Distances Calculator] site, screenshots of many of those systems listed are [http://imgur.com/a/vEqgv#0 here] .<nowiki/>
