It is my intention to Mine the 3 P's to save enough to buy a Clutter...

Starting with a Python loaded out for mining.., then moving to Annaconda for heavy duty mining..

I've choosen a System which has a High tech station very close to the Nav Beacon, with supplies of Limpets...

Then further out a Gas Giant with an Inner Metallic Ring ( Major Reserves ) ...

About 5-6 Jumps away is a System Buying Painite in the 39K range..

Ta Dah!

If anyone else is up for such an adventure, and wants to participate in 'Wing Mining" then drop me a line, here or in-game.

I shall probable be there most nights for the next weeks... ( subject to dropping into Horizons beta for a quick play )

Hi Zaphonicus, yeah I'm in the same situation, I have a mining Python kitted out and looking for good sites.

I've added you in-game, must team up sometime, I'm scouting around towards your direction.

I do mining occasionally and would like to join you. Feel free to add me to your in-game friends list.

I am working on becoming allied with the factions at high-tech stations near where I mine, to get higher paying BB missions for P rocks. :)

Did about 2.5 hrs last night and Got about $4M for it... ( Including two mining missions $300K ish and a Bounty $150k for a FDL that tried to attack me...), The Ring i'm at has mostly Palladium, Platinum, Gold Silver, and the other 'ites' with a modicum of Painite. ( Didnt travel to the other system to sell the Painite ..but it might be worthwhile if a full load of the P's.)

Was playing so long the sun set behind the Gas Giant as i was mining.. Couldnt see a thing... Needed my Beam lasers on driving forward to warn me of incoming rocks...great fun, and very surreal.. Felt Just like eeking out the last minutes of playing outside when you were a kid...

I'll PM directly my loaction and if it

Got a mining clipper in Fehu atm, but certainly not locked to the area.
Got decent reseources but no fetch missions to boost profitabillity.

PS: this kinda reminds me of eve (quite a few years ago) where a bunch would we would have mining ops for building ships and whatnot.
I do not miss it...
This would probably be a lot quicker than that :p.

Then again the cutter only costs 208 mil.
