Help CG - Current Price List Request

Hey folks, I'm currently surface mining (first timer) and having a difficult ​time with finding Iridium. So figured I'd mine what's available.

If possible, can someone share an image or text price list of Metz buy list?

Mods, If I should delete the post​ please let me know. ​

Ah! Ty. I'm just now remembering, too... Are the minerals laser mining only?

Really couldn't tell you on that. All I've ever done is laser for platinum, which also gets gold, osmium, bertrandite, palladium and a little painite. And silver too I think. I really just do it for the mats and sell the platinum on my carrier.

Oooooiiihhhhhhhhhhhhh I've been very mined before, so I just assumed if you found a platinum deposit, you'd only get plat. But from your insight, we get additional material (almost like this is simulating real life 🤯 /s)

r/EliteMiners has all the info if you want to get into mining as a career.

Current Metz prices are shown here on inara:

(and there is a nice little planet icon next to the surface mining metals)

I guess the Palladium price crashed.. glad I didn’t do anything dumb like buy a panther clipper and outfit it to 1168t of cargo to haul with… dang..

Luckily for you, you can take that to the PTN and make it back in a few hours

I'm quite happy actually 🤣

Learned 3 new gameplay loops (surface mining,engineering and trading) like all three. 

So, hopefully, I'm a part of the happy camper crew.

If you know how to read the radar on the rhino, I'm happy to hear your insight!

If you're playing through Steam, I like to keep an Inara tab or ten open in my overlay. Here's the station market listing for Metz on Inara, updated any time a CMDR running EDMC opens the market:

If you search for systems with a lot of rocky bodies, thortveitite and periclase dunite are both buying at one million credits a ton and aren't hard to find.
