These are what you should be looking out for, generally try and get a good mix of the more exotic ore types. Iron ore is ok but it sells for little and is highly abundant on the station already.
These are what you should be looking out for, generally try and get a good mix of the more exotic ore types. Mine gibtonite by hitting the ore with a mining tool then hitting it with your scanner. Don't wait too long or it will explode!

|For <s>trolling miners</s> blowing shit up, whether they be solid asteroid or [[Traitor|other things]]. Hitting it with your mining tools will start a chain reaction. If you don't stop the reaction with your mining scanner in time, the gibtonite will explode. If you do, you can mine the ore, pick it up (you need both hands free) and use it as an explosive. The closer the gibtonite was to exploding before defused, the more potent its power. Cannot be forged or turned in to the ore redemption machine, so don't bring any of this to the station or else you'll be <s>arrested</s> ignored by security because they don't know what the hell it is.
 
How to obtain Gibtonite: Hit ore, count to 8 flashes of the ore then hit it with your scanner. Gibtonite varies in the number of reactions it has, so you may get lower quality ore. Use 2 of the 0 reaction ores (the most potent) to blow open the AI core and make it cry at it's malf failure!

===Who Needs What===
===Who Needs What===
Miners don't have to deliver ores directly to departments -- they can if they want, or if those bastards are too lazy to leave their fortress of <s>autism</s> science -- but it never hurts to know what to aim for.
* [[Scientist]]s at least a bit of every ore. In exchange they may upgrade your protolathe, allowing for you to get more advanced mining items.
 
* [[Scientist]]s at least a bit of every ore. In exchange, they may give you upgrades for your Kinetic Accelerator, a [[Plasma Cutter]], a [[Research_items#Mining Satchel of Holding|Mining Satchel of Holding]], and, if you're lucky, Night Vision Meson Scanners or a [[Bag of Holding]]!
* [[Roboticist]]s need diamond, uranium, silver and gold for building mech parts. Give them enough and you've indirectly helped out most of the departments on the station if the Roboticists are competent enough to build helpful stompy mechs for everybody! Too bad the Ripley is the only <s>good</s> mech for mining.

* The [[Quartermaster]] may want mineral sheets to trade them in for bonus supply credits. Plasma in particular is both common and valuable.
