Arkonor is one of the rarest and most sought-after ores in the known universe. A sizable nugget of this can sweep anyone from rags to riches in no time. It has high amount of Megacyte, and also contains some Mexallon and Pyerite. This material is compressed and a much more compact form of the original material.

Azure plagioclase was made infamous in the melancholic song prose Miner Blues by the Gallentean folk singer Jaroud Dertier three decades ago. Plagioclase is not amongst the most valuable ore types around, but it contains a large amount of pyerite and is thus always in constant demand. It also yields some tritanium and mexallon. This ore is a compressed and much more dense version of the original ore.

Bistot is a very valuable ore as it holds large portions of Zydrine and Pyerite. It also contains a decent amount of Mexallon. This material is compressed and a much more compact form of the original material.

Interstellar ices are formed by accretion of gas molecules onto silicate dust particles. Due to its unique chemical composition and the circumstances under which it forms, blue ice contains more oxygen isotopes than any other ice asteroid. This ore has been compressed into a much more dense version.

Spodumain is occasionally found with crystalline traces in its outer surface. Known as bright spodumain, the crystal adds considerable value to an already valuable mineral. Spodumain is amongst the most desirable ore types around, as it contains high volumes of the four most heavily demanded minerals. Huge volumes of tritanium and pyerite, as well as moderate amounts of mexallon and isogen can be obtained by refining these rocks. This ore is a compressed and much more dense version of the original ore.

Interstellar ices are formed by accretion of gas molecules onto silicate dust particles. These crystalline formations can be found scattered around many an ice field, and are known as the universe's primary source of helium isotopes. This ore has been compressed into a much more dense version.

Clusters of veldspar, called concentrated veldspar, are sometimes found in areas where normal veldspar is already in abundance. The most common ore type in the known universe, veldspar can be found almost everywhere. It is still in constant demand as it holds a large portion of the much-used tritanium mineral. This ore is a compressed and much more dense version of the original ore.

Condensed Scordite is a close cousin of normal Scordite, but with 5% better yield. The increase may seem insignificant, but matters greatly to new miners where every ISK counts. Scordite is amongst the most common ore types in the known universe. It has a large portion of tritanium plus a fair bit of pyerite. Good choice for those starting their mining careers. This ore is a compressed and much more dense version of the original ore.

While fairly invisible to all but the most experienced miners, there are significant molecular differences between arkonor and its crimson counterpart, so-named because of the blood-red veins running through it. Miners who search for this diamond in the rough will be rewarded with mineral yields 5% higher than standard arkonor. Arkonor is one of the rarest and most sought-after ores in the known universe. A sizable nugget of this can sweep anyone from rags to riches in no time. It has high amount of Megacyte, and also contains some Mexallon and Pyerite. This material is compressed and a much more compact form of the original material.
