    I decided to poke my nose into a class 4 mining site to see what could be found. I was shocked to find magmacite asteroids. The thing is, I've tried SV laser drills (CVs can't warp in), epic hand drill and voidium hand drill and nothing seems to be scratching it. I'm not seeing dropped ore, ore in the 32k container controller, messages about storage being full....just can't seem to mine any ore out of the asteroid. Any ideas?

    They are very tough. You have to focus your drill on a single point for awhile.

    Also the only parts of the asteroid that can be mined is the magmacite itself which shows up as solid red. The lava like rock can't be mined.
