Hey folks!

Star Citizen 4.0 brought a lot of great changes to Star Citizen, but one major change that has eliminated my ability to directly extract the minerals by location that was the underlying data to many of my charts. Fortunately, other more talented members of the community have been able to step in with some really useful tools for crowd-sourcing what we see in game – namely Regolith.rocks!

I’ve had the pleasure of consulting with Raychaser (the developer behind Regolith.rocks) on the various charts and survey data collection processes, and he’s done an exceptional job building that all into a web-based tool that has become a mainstay of the Star Citizen Mining Community.

So What Do I Do Now?

With the bulk of my charting data moving over to Regolith, there’s still an opportunity for quick reference charts and other information that’s not apparent just by reviewing the tables there so I’m pivoting my focus to those supplemental resources. I’ll try to keep these updated as things change, but don’t expect them to shift very often.

Updated Tables for 4.1.1

The mineral properties table is a quick reference for mineral tiers, values, and the most important properties of each mineral.

The resistance and instability values are based on a regression analysis of over 20,000 rocks and indicate a RELATIVE correlation, although these are not the exact values you would expect to see for each rock.

The various rock types include secondary minerals that could impact the rocks overall parameters. These are listed with easier minerals highlighted in green, and more difficult mineals highighted in orange.

Detection distances also vary between Mining and Expedition ships compared to any other ship types. Knowing how far away a signal may be detected can be helpful for identifying and eliminating or prioritizing signals.

These charts and other mining resources are available for free to anyone that needs them, but it takes time and effort to keep up to date. Please consider supporting my ongoing content creation efforts by becoing a Patreon Member.
