Mining Probe

Created and manufactured by the Mining Guild, with help from the Department Of Engineering for mass production requirements, beginning at the middle of YE 41, the current users are primarily the Mining Guild, but Starships can be equipped.

this is included in Mining Guild Equipment

After the formation of the Mining Guild, and the creation of the Mining Scanner, the guild discovered that simply placing GPS devices wouldn’t cut it, because sometimes storms happen and they’d have to seek shelter, sometimes a gust of wind takes it, and then they’d need something for Star ships, so probes were created and soon found use, they were bigger, and heavier so the wind couldn’t take them and durable and covered so storms couldn’t damage it. Since then the probes were used in conjunction with the Mineral scanners

The Mining probes are made of a Durandium Alloy in order to keep it durable from damaged caused by the elements as well as heat and impact from atmospheric entry. To aid in protection against electrical damage the Probes were coated with rubber-like substances that block electricity from damaging the circuitry. The main purpose of the Probes is to mark locations that were detected to have rich deposits of multiple materials depending on what the Searchers are looking for.

The Mining probes are truly the size of 36 inches in length, or 3 feet in other words, however, the effect of light emissions from the probes can make them seem bigger to the eyes. Due to the fact that these probes are shot out of a Starship, they had an aerodynamic appearance almost vaguely squid-shaped, so that during the flight to the target destination air friction and things of that nature wouldn’t cause it to explode prematurely. The coloring was red, with some black at the back of it, Spikes ended 3 “tails” which kept the probe in place on the ground, capable of digging in.

Primarily The Mining Guild is the source where one can get their hands on the Mining Probes, it’s a part of their standard equipment. Thanks to the aid of the Department of Engineering, it is Mass-produced as well, but it is preferred that the Probes stays with the NDC though businesses that the NDC is a client of could be spoken with to buy the Probes

Recommended Retail Prices

price is a ball park between 3-5k DS or 1.25k KS if buying for 5K
