Make raw material fragmets able lootable on-foot

I discovered that you can shoot a meterorite with a handheld weapon and break it. However you cannot pick up the fragments, even though that seems to make sense to me: they are rather small and it would be actually much easier to pick up by hand than drive back and forth in the SRV.

Also it might be a good idea to be able to use the Artemis sampler tool on meteorites for some extra sellable data. I know that it's a "genetic sampler" though, so maybe a different tool should do.

guess the fragments don't fit in the backback. Would need a mechanic to carry them back to the SRV ;-)
So in stead of "drive back and forth" you would "walk back and forth".

Well, since in ship and SRVs material are transferred into a magical weightless storage, I imagine it could be consistent on-foot and do the same.

I don't really like this magical storage thing though, I'd go for a bit more realism here and require cargo space for "unrefined" material fragments that can be secured on stations and moved to the globally available magic bank account (maybe increase the exchange rate a bit to make it less tedious, e.g. 1 fragment -> 6 materials instead of 3 as it is now)
