Summary
System: Kokoller
Station: Utley Hub (Coriolis Starport, large pads available, 1,090 Ls from main star, 106.63 Ly from Sol)
Objective: Deliver mined Bertrandite, Coltan and Praseodymium
Time limit: 6th July 3309 @ 06:00 UTC

Description
A campaign to attract deep space mining pilots has been launched by the Federal corporation Kokoller Limited.
With the Federation diverting considerable resources toward sustaining its anti-xeno countermeasures, some systems are looking to alternative options for sustaining stocks of raw materials. Kokoller Limited is seeking to take advantage of a strong position in its home system, by running a campaign to procure additional resources for the local economy.
Spokesperson Paul Dyson had the following to say:
I believe that continued support of the Federal Navy’s efforts to protect us is an obligation of all stellar factions. It would be in poor taste to complain or seek sympathy for the impact on our business operations while our brave military personnel risk their lives to keep us safe.

That said, while the galactic economy continues to function, it falls on us to maintain high incomes to fund the war via taxes and charitable contributions. One could say that maximising profits is our moral duty. Therefore, raw materials are requested to keep our refineries churning out resources.
Kokoller Limited has invited all asteroid miners to bring shipments of bertrandite, coltan and praseodymium to Utley Hub in the Kokoller system.
The campaign begins on the 29th of June and will run for one week. If the final target is met earlier than planned, the campaign will end immediately.
To be eligible for rewards you must sign up as an active participant before delivering Bertrandite, Coltan and Praseodymium to Utley Hub in the Kokoller system.
Please note that for commodities to count towards your personal contribution total, they must be mined rather than purchased.
Be aware that faction-state changes and other disruptive events can negatively impact markets and station services, and could prevent the initiative from running smoothly.

Don't these threads usually go live when the CG goes live, rather than when Galnet leaks them?

Edit: And it's finally live - "eventual consistency", fdev style :D

Don't complain - we're lucky to get any CG these days :(

I'm not complaining, just asking :) I don't need any credits, but a nice paintjob or decal would have made me launching Elite for the first time since January, since I quite enjoy(ed) the relaxing experience of mining in VR :(
 
No... umm.. "defend" part for a mining CG? :-(
Of course! Whoever heard of pirates checking out ships arriving in asteroid belts ;)

I'll definitely give it a go though, haven't been mining in ages. I left my mining Python in Colonia so it'll give me an excuse to take my refitted T10 out.
 
Excuse my dumbness but how do we find out what the rewards are?

Also the linked mining tool doesn't do any of the materials that this CG wants. What's a good proxy for them? Or is there a way to find them?
 
Nice to see another CG, last one was very challenging and I had so much fun doing it.

I was also missing a good reward but if you pay better attention you'll see they're paying nicely for the commodities. It's a good way to increase trading rank and get some Inara achievements!

By "rewards" we're talking about paintjobs, pre-engineered modules and such.
Those are usually mentioned in the wall of text that comes with the CG.
There's not any mention of any of those in this CG's text, so there won't be any in this one.
Check the previous CG's text for a reference.

So... there are none. Just the cash you get for selling the materials.

Well, prices are decently buffed at the target station, but you're still going to make a lot more money mining platinum. If that's what you're after. If you're more focused on playing the game and being part of the world, then this sort of thing is fine. I'm not set up for mining at the moment so I think I'll skip it.

While prices are better than normal market prices, the profit opportunity is really really dim.
Mining is proffitable when goodies can be mined fast and sold for good prices - 300k per ton like platinum, that has hotspots with res sites and can be mined really fast.
At 75k tops per ton with no hotspots and low yields, the prospect of making a buck is not there.

So... yea... for the Community although the Federation is not the exact community that i tempted to support with basically no incentives.

Yeah it's useless if you don't want the high value stuff. There is a metal-rich ring in the CG system.
