Time to Punch In

Korolev Heavy Industries, the system's industrial powerhouse... and near monopoly. The megacorp came to Fortuna III early to exploit its resources, and sticks around now to make sure its claims don't lapse. Plus, they keep the lights on up here, for a nice profit. They want you to perform some simple tasks to prove your mettle. Don't disappoint!

Good Honest Work

Now that you're part of the Korolev family, it's time to put some real work in. Korolev would send down its own teams to retrieve resources, but the planet's status as "Extremely Hazardous to Life" makes that slightly illegal. Plus, what kind of person would be crazy enough to go down there, anyway?

Veltecite for the Masses

Veltecite fuels Prospect Station's power generators, foundries, engines, and is its main export. The few mineral deposits exposed to the surface can generally be found near water, but tracking one down can be time consuming, and dangerous. Wouldn't it be nice to have an easier and faster way to get to it? Fortunately Korolev has a few techs working on just the thing.

Focussed on Crystals

Focus Crystals are a staple in many new electronics, particularly those built in the Fortuna system. It would be nice if some of those electronics could help with locating them, and with the right materials the techs at Korolev might have just the thing.

Clear Focus	"We have a new Scanner mod in the works, one that can find Focus Crystals. We'll need some high purity samples for callibration."	Collect: 3 Pure Focus Crystal	Template:Price

A Powerful Discovery

Stable Letium? It's an important discovery; the compound has so far only been collected as a volatile, quickly decaying gas, and it's not exactly safe to handle. What little has been collected so far revolutionized Veltecite refining, having a stable source of both would be massive... for Korolev's profits. Definitely worth investigating!

Research Costs

A lot of questions remain about how to stabilize Letium for safe and easy exploitation; with what's already been recovered and studied, Letium could be used not just to refine Veltecite, but trigger all sorts of other reactions in more common materials. Help Korolev with what they need and their discoveries might even surpass the brains at Osiris!

Heavy Construction

Time to build a machine capable of safely (well, relatively) extracting and processing Flaked Letium from the surface. Fortunately Korolev used to operate Mobile Mining Platforms, giant laser drills that would float through the peaceful skies of Fortuna III in search of mineral veins to exploit. The days those things could be safely operated are long gone, but they're just the thing we need now to mine for Letium, with some assistance on the ground.

Crush Hazard

Crushers aren't known for their curiosity, or really anything other than very efficiently crushing things, which on the off chance they pay a visit to a Laser Drill, it's best we all know you're up to the task of taking one down. Good hunting, Prospector!
