The Great ELW Fishing Expedition

Back at it again, I thought I wait for #100 with my next post, but well...
My first ringed ELW in this competition and on this trip:
And then #100 - of course it had to be a binary with a second ELW 
The ringed #96 is a beauty, or so I think anyway; unfortunately the baric. GG is >40ls away, but it is visible here as well:
With that I will move on from this boxel, 14 ELWs in 953 systems visited (1 in 68). That's more than a quarter of sysems visited in the boxel, so I run into more and more already visited systems...

What a beauty! Also, the green tint of the ring is very interesting, I have never noticed a green tint in any ring I have seen so far...
Yeah, that's the nice thing about it, the distant part of the ring looks like one big ring with many colorful ripples, the near part looks like several transparant rings. That's also why I posted it in full 4K resolution - usually I shrink my screenshots...

Question for any miners ....what will be the best ore for the prize transfers? We are coming up on the half-way point for the expedition, figured I would get that taken care of (more like paying an extreme amount to a real miner for 500 tons) hehe
Sorry I haven't been active lately. Busy with the CG on my other account.
Been cruising around in the neutron belt some 1000 clicks beneath the gal plane. Is it just my imagination or are elws more scarce here?
I pulled out of my best producing cube myself, it just got to the point to where I had so many visited systems, I was manually plotting each jump just to avoid them. I found (what I hope to be) another good prospect, 10 out of 340 so far......
I keep meaning to update the thread with my finds - but it's been a lean few months. I'm not even sure I have 10 in total
... on the plus side, should be a quick update when I get round to it I kept keeping my finds unreported in hopes, that by being silent, I will put you all in limbo and then flood it here at the last minute, winning the competition... Guess my assumption was wrong... 
Binary.
Back in the seat, and also back on my quest for the Black Hole ELW (and also for an Herbig ELW and a Carbon Star ELW, as probable additional goals) . Along my (economic) routes, I managed to finally snag a fresh ELW yesterday. And... well... it looks like I've broken my own record for the Longest Orbital Period with this one

Started some other grindy game, so my speed will slow down some more...
