The Mining Laser is the primary hardpoint for laser mining. It breaks ordinary fragments from suitable asteroids; those fragments still have to be collected and processed by a Refinery before they become cargo.

Draft: This article is still a work in progress and may be incomplete. You can help improve it by adding or expanding its content.

Mining role

Mining role
Breaks standard mining fragments from laser-mineable asteroid material.

Notes
Still requires a refinery and cargo space to turn fragments into saleable cargo.
  • How to Laser Mine (Draft) — Extract surface fragments from asteroids with mining lasers, collect them with limpets, and refine useful commodities.
  • How to Start Mining (Draft) — Prepare a ship for a first mining run and complete the basic loop of finding, extracting, refining, and selling mined commodities.
