To: Tau-23 (Brimstone Refinery - Closing)

[EFL Oil and Machinery]

Bonjour Merchants & Miners,

My name is Jordane Francois, I am the Chief Executive Officer of EFL Oil & Machinry. It has been quite sometime since Brimstone has become a valuable EFL asset. It saddens me to say the station has suffered grave damage over time due to constant bombardment from Tau-23's asteroid field. The station's hull integrity is now beyond maintenance and are at critical levels. All EFL employees maintaining the station's orbit are currently being evacuated. Remaining Niobium and Beryllium Ore currently are being shipped to Helmand Outpost for safe keeping. In the event Helmand Outpost must act as a substitute for nearby miners to remain able to earn their livings. All miners are required to register their vessel freely on Helmand's nueral net. Security escorts are to be vigilant to suspicious activity lurking near the outpost, but are to remain under its protection. Brimstone Refinery in time will be reconstructed for ore processing for the region. Bonne Chance.

Helmand Outpost:

Beryllium: 3,500 per
Niobium: 3,000 per

Chief Executive Officer,
Jordane Francois
