Considered a worthless ore for years, dark ochre was ignored by most miners until improved reprocessing techniques managed to extract the huge amount of Isogen and Mexallon inside it. Dark ochre also contains useful amounts of Nocxium. This material is compressed and a much more compact form of the original material.

Dark glitter is one of the rarest of the interstellar ices, formed only in areas with large amounts of residual electrical current. Little is known about the exact way in which it comes into being; the staggering amount of liquid ozone to be found inside one of these rocks makes it an intriguing mystery for stellar physicists and chemists alike. In addition, it contains large amounts of heavy water and a decent measure of strontium clathrates. This ore has been compressed into a much more dense version.

Crystalline crokite is the stuff of legend. Not only does it give a 10% greater yield than regular crokite, but chunks of the rock glitter beautifully in just the right light, making crystalline crokite popular as raw material for jewelry. Crokite is a very heavy ore that is always in high demand because it has the largest ratio of Nocxium and Mexallon for any ore in the known universe. Valuable deposits of Pyerite can also be found within this rare ore. This material is compressed and a much more compact form of the original material.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
