Jaspis II

One of the more hostile environments in the Jaspis System, Jaspis II's extremely dense, corrosive atmosphere and frequent electromagnetic storms makes mining operations rather costly over all. However, the vast material wealth found on Jaspis II makes many corporations take the risk in investing. Because of this, Jaspis II has been the cause of many bankruptcies and failures.
