Automated Mining Extractor
Automated Mining Extractors are typically found on the surface of airless metal rich worlds that are typically close to the main star and where the system has Extraction as the primary or secondary economy. These extractors can be destroyed by weapons fire. When destroyed, each extractor will release a single 1 ton mineral commodity fragment such as Gold, Palladium, Bertrandite, etc., which can be picked up with a cargo scoop. The mineral type of the fragment determines which 1 ton commodity cargo canister is deposited into your cargo rack.
Multiple Automated Mining Extractors are found at each "mining site", and are typically guarded by defence turrets and skimmers. The "mining site" typically has some small towers providing illumination and have the possibility of containing small buildings at the site.
Note that the defence turret, skimmers and trespass zone can be ignored and defences will not retaliate unless fired upon, which will then result in a zero notoriety wanted bounty being issued. These bounties can be cleared at an Interstellar Factor in a system where the bounty issuing faction is not present.
The Automated Mining Extractors appear as three small cargo canisters atop a tripod which is emitting a mining laser from its base. When an Automated Mining Extractor is scanned with the Data Link Scanner it will display an message revealing its contents.
