Minerals

Minerals are the new gold. They are essential to the humans' daily life since they can be sold to make money, usually in the form of colonial credits. They can be found in most colonized planets, and can be mined from different harvesters, for example the Minmeister Harvester

In the game, there are three different minerals. The minerals in Hephasus is like mountains of rock. The minerals in Ares is like patches of sand. The minerals in Poseidon is literally ice. And there are three sizes for minerals: small, which can be sold at 25 credits, medium, which can be sold at 40 credits, and large, which can be sold at 70 credits.
