The number of deposits on the surface of a planet is randomly chosen from the range in the 'quantity' column of the deposit size table below.
+
The number and size of the mineral deposits on a planet is determined from the specified deposit type and the size of the system's star as follows:
−
The amount of mineral units within one deposit is determined from the "quality" column in the deposit size table below, together with the size of the star which the planet orbits, and some randomness.
 
  
−
Specifically, the quality is determined as follows. First an intermediate quality value is calculated by chosing a random number in the range 0-99, adding the quality modifier from the deposit size table times 10, as well as the quality modifier from the star size table times 10.
+
{|border=1 cellpadding=2 cellspacing=0
−
If the intermediate quality value is less than 150, then the image for the deposit will be small; if it is 150 or higher, but no more than 225, then the image will be medium-sized; if it is 225 or higher, than the image will be large.

*'''Quantity''' is the number of mineral deposits of that type to be found on the planet.
 +
*'''Quality''' is the size of each mineral deposit.  The numbers given are for Dwarf star systems.  Giant and Supergiant systems add +5 and +10, respectively, to the Quality of each mineral deposit in the system.
 +
*'''Avg Dwarf''' is the average number of units of the mineral one could expect to find on such a planet around a Dwarf star.
 +
*'''Avg Giant''' is the average number of units of the mineral one could expect to find on such a planet around a Giant star.
 +
*'''Avg Super''' is the average number of units of the mineral one could expect to find on such a planet around a Supergiant star.

The actual quality of the deposit is acquired from the intermediate quality value by dividing it by 10, and then adding 1.
+
Where the minerals table says "&times;2" or "&times;3", there will be multiple series of deposits. So for example a Carbide World will generate three Heavy sets of deposits.

Mineral values[edit]

This table shows the RU you can receive at the Starbase at Earth, per unit of minerals. A graphic table is also available.

Category Value
Mineral Common.png Common 1
Mineral Corrosive.png Corrosive 2
Mineral BaseMetal.png Base Metal 3
Mineral NobleGas.png Noble Gas 4
Mineral RareEarth.png Rare Earth 5
Mineral Precious.png Precious 6
Mineral Radioactive.png Radioactive 8
Mineral Exotic.png Exotic 25

Mineral amounts[edit]

The number and size of the mineral deposits on a planet is determined from the specified deposit type and the size of the system's star as follows:

Description Quantity Quality Avg Dwarf Avg Giant Avg Super
Trace 0-1 1-10 5.5 8 15.5
Light 0-4 1-10 11 21 31
Medium 0-4 6-15 21 31 41
Heavy 0-4 11-20 31 41 51
Huge 0-8 11-20 62 82 102
  • Quantity is the number of mineral deposits of that type to be found on the planet.
  • Quality is the size of each mineral deposit. The numbers given are for Dwarf star systems. Giant and Supergiant systems add +5 and +10, respectively, to the Quality of each mineral deposit in the system.
  • Avg Dwarf is the average number of units of the mineral one could expect to find on such a planet around a Dwarf star.
  • Avg Giant is the average number of units of the mineral one could expect to find on such a planet around a Giant star.
  • Avg Super is the average number of units of the mineral one could expect to find on such a planet around a Supergiant star.

Where the minerals table says "×2" or "×3", there will be multiple series of deposits. So for example a Carbide World will generate three Heavy sets of deposits.

The size of the graphic used for the deposit is determined as follows:

Quality Graphic Size
0-15 Small
16-23 Medium
23-30 Large

Note that deposits of 23 units can appear as either Medium or Large graphics (about a 50-50 chance of either)
