Newcomer / Intro Mining Laser

Where can I get a mining laser? Or do I have one already in standard ship? I got a mission now to deliver 3 Cobalt, and I guess I have to min it from planets or such?
 
You can buy it in a station, in the outfitting section (choose empty bay then select buy and outfit, it will show yo ua list of available modules)

You can get the cobalt also by buying (often in the same station....)

ah, to mine you'll also need a refinery, so you need to buy that too
Sure it isn't a delivery mission where they give you already the items to deliver?

You buy mining lasers in the outfitting menu in stations that have then, you would also need a refinery and cargo space so tricky to do on a starter ship.
For your mission however you need to find a station that sells cobalt, look in the galaxy map. You can chance the key of the map (3rd tab) to show economy type and then look for a system that is extraction.
You can filter the trade routes to only show cobalt and the buy the trade data of the extraction systems to see if it's trading cobalt, if so it will have a route coming out it.

Right, I see. Quite difficult! There is no laser available is this station as it seems. -.- But I'll try that second idea - thank you all! :)
 
Is the mission to find Cobalt and return it to the station or to deliver it to some place else? If the latter then check your hold, you should have been given it.

If it's the former then most Refinery economy's will sell Cobalt.
 
weefilly from BF4?????? :)

you buy a mining laser 6,800 cr. you also need a refinery roughly same price.. but mining lasers replace normal laser ;)

And the refinery is an internal module, so you need to sacrifice something else (normally shields as life support, power plants etc tend to be more... vital)
