# Gear up! Take a pickaxe, wear fingerless gloves, wear mesons and put a scanner into your pocket. A shovel can be placed in your backpack. Get to the Mining Outpost. Take an additional satchel from the storage room in the station. You might need to have internals ready if the round has gone for some time.
# Gear up! From the mining equipment locker, take a pickaxe and a lantern, wear fingerless gloves, wear mesons and put a scanner into your pocket. A shovel can be placed in your backpack. Use the shuttle to enter the mining outpost, if you have spawned on the station. You might need to have internals ready if the round has gone for some time.
# Use your voucher on a mining vending machine to select your choice of mining tool. An accelerator or mining drone can help when fighting mobs.

# Take your mining rig. Take a mining GPS and put it in your box. Name it "HELP" when you're in trouble. It's easy enough for telesci or other miners to understand that you want them to grab you, but they will likely do nothing. Go to west side station and take one bruise pack and ointment from the medkit. Fill your emergency O2 fully up at the big oxygen canister, embark to mining outside the south airlocks. Lantern on your exo slot!
# Take and wear a mining hardsuit, helmet and breath mask from EVA. Take a mining GPS and put it in your box. Name it "HELP" when you're in trouble. It's easy enough for telesci or other miners to understand that you want them to grab you. Go to west side of the station and take one bruise pack and ointment from the medkit. Fill your emergency O2 fully up at the big oxygen canister in the maintenance room and embark to mining outside the south airlocks. '''You need to have internals and your hardsuit on to survive outside.''' Drag an ore box with you to store minerals.
# Find dem minerals. There are more minerals on the West side of the asteroid, but the East side has no mobs to worry about. Use the scanner, for your first haul back to the station prioritize a mixture of silver, gold, uranium, diamonds but in small portions for anything not diamond (get as many diamonds as possible), Bring at least 50 ores of plasma.
# Find dem minerals. There are more minerals on the West side of the asteroid, but the East side has no mobs to worry about. Use the scanner to be able to see valuable minerals. Try to get a mixture of gold, silver, uranium, plasma and diamond. Sand can be digged up with a shovel or drill and iron can be seen without a scanner, but they do not redeem as many points as the other minerals.
# Go to the ore redeemer and get points for the plasma and diamonds, deliver some materials to R&D (10-15 sheets each material except iron) and everything else to Robotics. And buy either a jetpack or the more useful MediPens. Inject at least 2 for a good lasting effect.

# At the mining equipment vendor you can get sonic jackhammers, jetpacks or MediPens with the points you've gained.
# Assuming you didn't fuck off into space with the jetpack, use your new found speed to find materials quickly. You are now either artifact hunting, or mob hunting till shuttle call (or still collecting materials for science, why you'd need to I don't know).

# Repeat until bored or shuttle arrives. You are now offically a miner who can be useful and make yourself stronger.
