The wrecks of past wars and conflicts have often been turned from monuments of triumphs or tragedies into resources to be recovered for a profit in valuable metals and technology. Gallia is no exception from this tradition, with many large sites from past battles requiring massive salvage efforts.
This resources helps Gallia as reinvestment in materials when sent to Maintenon Shipyard in Orleanis as well as profits for the coffers when sold as export to markets such as Rheinland.
In continuing with efforts to assist Gallic clean-up operations while ensuring some profit in the coordination of said efforts, All Worlds Gallia in Languedoc has proposed a challenge to salvage teams to add a little competitive excitement.

Excert Source Credit and more information: Discovery Mining Guide
For those who are new to mining in Discovery, keep this in mind
You will need a specialized mining ship to harvest ores. More on this in a moment.
Mining requires mining turrets in addition to a mining ship.
Finally, you require a mining company ID (for example, DHC) with a matching IFF, or alternatively, an independent Freelancer ID, available for sale on most stations.
Ore is automatically transferred into your cargo bay. You don’t have to tractor in ore as per vanilla / other previous mods.
Only mining turrets are effective for mining. Other weapons are practically useless for mining operations.
Mining Ships when used with a compatible ID can provide extra droprate from mining fields. Not all mining ships can get a bonus on every mining ID, so check Part II of the guide for a detailed list of which IDs provide a bonus with which ships and for which ores.
Surveyor Light Fighter All around weak, with a small loadout and cargo hold. Nimble but otherwise ineffective for mining by yourself - useful as a miner for larger transports. Mining Array HardpointsPlace on slots 1-2-3-4-5
Scraper Very Heavy Fighter Stronger than the Surveyor, but still small. Ineffective without a friend in a cargo vessel. Mining Array HardpointsPlace on slot 7
Arrastra Super Heavy Fighter The strongest of the “generic miner” line, capable of being used as a combat vessel or escort, but very unwieldy. Unrecommended for either combat or mining. Mining Array HardpointsPlace on slots 3-4-5-6-7
Spatial Super Heavy Fighter Heavier than the Arrastra with a massive wingspan, this fighter is more useful for combat than anything else. Possible but ineffective to mine in. Mining Array HardpointsPlace on slots 7-8
Tournez Gallic Light Fighter A gallic facsimile of the Surveyor. Roughly as effective. Mining Array HardpointsPlace on slots 1-2-3-4-5
Courbe Gallic Very Heavy Fighter Same as above, for the Scraper. Mining Array HardpointsPlace on slot 1-2-3-4
Plier Gallic Super Heavy Fighter Same as above, for the Arrastra. Mining Array HardpointsPlace on slots 1-2-3-4
Collector Very Heavy Fighter A relatively light Junker craft that may be used to mine scrap, although it is not recommended. Mining Array HardpointsPlace on slots 6-7
Recycler Super Heavy Fighter A large Junker super heavy fighter, the Recycler may be used in a similar respect as the CSF, although its lower cargo hold and larger frame make it an easy target for pirate craft. Mining Array HardpointsPlace on slots 3-4-7
AI Drone Gammu AI super heavy fighter. Mining Array HardpointsPlace on slots 5-6
Kestrel Given as the default starter ship. Mining Array HardpointsPlace on slots 3-4-5-6-7
Anki A small freighter, similar to the Kestrel in function and size. Mining Array HardpointsPlace on slots 3-4-5-6

CSF Larger cousin of the CSV, with multiple forward-firing mining turret mounts. More practical for a group mining vessel, but not recommended as a standalone craft. Mining Array HardpointsPlace on slots 4-5-7-8
CSV Small junker freighter with little armament or cargo hold. Due to a rear-firing turret, it is practically useless for mining. Mining Array HardpointsPlace on slots 4-5
Hegemon Large Transport The most ubiquitous mining vessel, tends to become a bit stuck and is very large for its cargo size. Holds the largest amount of turrets of any mining vessel, but remains a very easy target for pirates. Mining Array HardpointsPlace on slots 1-2-3-4
Kaiser Mining Ship Newly introduced Rheinland mining vessel with Hegemon-like cargo hold. Mining Array HardpointsPlace on slots 2-3-4-5
Kamome A medium-size transport, the Kamome is utilized for Helium-3 collecting. Mining Array HardpointsPlace on slots ALL (Mine from the side for optimum results)
Rock Badger Gallic Transport Essentially a smaller gallic Hegemon, this ship is very effective at gathering and transporting ore. Mining Array HardpointsPlace on slots 1-2-5-9
Annapurna IMG Transport A very capable yet small miner, the Annapurna requires a nearby transport to unlock its full effectiveness. Restricted to those with the IMG Ships (Light) tech-cell. Mining Array HardpointsPlace on slots 3-4-5-6

Behemoth Medium Transport Medium-sized Rheinland transport used by ALG and Kruger. Mining Array HardpointsPlace on slots 5-6-7-8

It may either be used as a transport or as a standalone miner/transport hybrid. Mining Array HardpointsPlace on slots 4-5-6-7
Dunlin A defense-oriented civilian frigate with limited mining capabilities, occasionally used by Freelancers, Zoners and Junkers. Mining Array HardpointsPlace on slots 1-2-3-4
Alternative Objectives:
Provide Corporate or Private Security Escort for any miners and traders in Languedoc as they run the route to All Worlds Gallia with Military Salvage.
Event completion
This event will have a hard stop once limit is reached. All Worlds Gallia will stop accepting Military Salvage at 200,000 units, and will shortly thereafter be set back to Sell only standard pre-event prices. Overflow at that point at still be sold to local bases which may still be purchasing.
This event has a limit - upon reaching limit any further purchases will advise ship at station.
First ship that hits the limit for the event should communicate this to Event Coordinator (on this thread or other methods) so others can be informed
Provide shipname so some credits for this alert can be provided.
Incentives
Primary Objective - 2500 per unit dock prices, paid directly to the delivery ship.
Bonus: Any traders choosing to report their deliveries on forums on this thread to All Worlds Gallia will compete for a prize of an additional credits for top suppliers.
1st prize: 70M
2nd prize: 50M
3rd prize: 30M
Alternative Objectives:
Providing Corporate or Private Security Escort can be compensated without the need for Forum reports.
You can use: /PM AWES-Msg <text here> to advise Event Coordinator in brief about ships involved in Escort.
Of course you can accept direct pay as well from traders!
A reminder to all lawful traders participating that these efforts are completely covered by the recently revealed AWES Insurance & Claims Program. After 2 successful reporting communications, piracy and loss coverage will be in force, should the worst happen. Another option to consider if unpleasant unprofitable encounters arise!
AWES is proud to bring another event to the server will the help of our friends from administration, development, and many different factions.
We will continue to provide ongoing trade events as much as we can. The intention of these events is not just creating opportunities for making traders rich in a weekend, but to give a bit of predictability for sources of interaction and activity between traders and all the security escort, military, and even unlawful forces in areas of event. Hopefully in this way some satisfying RP can be had by all.
There are other non-trade activities in the works as well - they just take a bit more planning and development!
If you have ideas that you think would well implemented in the game MOSTLY BY PLAYERS for events, we are open to privately discussing and seeing how we can make this happen, provided it fits within our realm of activity/influence. You can also just use: /PM AWES-Msg <text here>
We want to be part of the solution! Help us build regular activity!
