			== When to use core mining ==

			Core mining is more deliberate than laser mining. The commander searches for a promising asteroid, confirms that it has fissures and valuable contents, places charges, moves clear of the blast, then uses an [[Abrasion Blaster]] and collectors to recover the exposed deposits.

			It rewards careful target selection and timing. It also punishes wasted charges, poor positioning, and cargo/refinery neglect, so a new commander should learn the normal collector and refinery loop first.

	== Equipment ==		== Equipment ==

	Core mining normally uses a [[Pulse Wave Analyser]] ~~to search, a~~ [[Seismic Charge Launcher]] ~~to crack~~ fissures~~, an~~ [[Abrasion Blaster]] ~~to remove~~ exposed deposits, ~~collector limpets~~, ~~a refinery~~, limpets~~, and cargo space~~.		Core mining normally uses:

			* [[Pulse Wave Analyser]] — highlights candidate asteroids worth inspecting.
			* [[Prospector Limpet Controller]] — confirms contents and deposits before charges are spent.
			* [[Seismic Charge Launcher]] — places charges into fissures.
			* [[Abrasion Blaster]] — removes exposed deposits after detonation.
			* [[Collector Limpet Controller]], [[Refinery]], cargo space, and limpets.
			* [[Detailed Surface Scanner]] — useful for finding mapped hotspots before the search begins.

			== Practical notes ==

			* A bright pulse-wave return is a clue, not proof of a valuable core.
			* The charge meter matters more than simply filling every fissure.
			* After detonation, the job is not finished until exposed deposits have been knocked loose and collected.
			* Core mining shares equipment with [[Surface Deposit Mining]], but the fissure-and-detonation stage is specific to core asteroids.

'''Core mining''' is the mining method built around finding an asteroid core, placing [[Seismic Charge Launcher|seismic charges]] into fissures, detonating the asteroid safely, and collecting the deposits exposed by the break-up.

== Equipment ==

Core mining normally uses a [[Pulse Wave Analyser]] to search, a [[Seismic Charge Launcher]] to crack fissures, an [[Abrasion Blaster]] to remove exposed deposits, collector limpets, a refinery, limpets, and cargo space.

== Workflow summary ==

# Search the ring for promising asteroids with the pulse wave analyser.
# Inspect and prospect candidates rather than firing charges blindly.
# Place seismic charges according to fissure strength and the detonation meter.
# Move to a safe distance before the detonation timer completes.
# Use an abrasion blaster on exposed deposits and collect the released resources.
