That is not really possible, unfortunately, due to the fact that with the possible exception of icy rings, all ring types have a chance of spawning the same mining fragments.  The depleted, common, major, pristine, etc reserve designations mainly indicate the amount that can be mined per asteroid before no more fragments are broken off and to a lesser extent the amount of a mineral type per fragment, while the rocky, high metal content and metallic designations mainly indicate the prevalance of a particular mineral (Ex. gold may be found in each of the above listed types, but the chance you will find it changes based on the type of ring)
