The largest and best established base on the asteroid, the mining station spans the fracture through the asteroid, and is roughly split into living quarters and ore processing/EVA. Most doors require Mining access. Mining Station access is required for external airlocks and EVA. | The largest and best established base on the asteroid, the mining station spans the fracture through the asteroid, and is roughly split into living quarters and ore processing/EVA.

As the mining asteroid exists on a different Z-level from the station, it is often used as a place of exile for [[Heads of Staff]] and [[Revolution|Head Revolutionaries]].
