I found:

Uncut Diamonds
It's still in Omega-11, 6D

Molybdenum Ore
Still in Zurich 4E

And it's good to see the Helium-3 back
It's in Sigma-13, 5G

The new location for Platinum-198 Ore in
Galileo, 4D

Then I want to know where the Frankfurt's Aluminium Ore moved to.

[Wheel.Rusty]

Can people post here where the new mining fields are?

Dublin
Gold Ore
Now in section 6/7 F.

New York
Scrap Metal - total waste of time. Nowhere to sell.
Sector 3 F

does this mean that if I am a Junker, that means I am a de-facto smuggler? because legitimate ways to make money are no longer available?

The figures are arranged. Time to start the game.

Scrap Metal is used in Player Base Scrap Refineries. See here:

There is literally no mining opportunity for junkers. None. That will tick a few people off. Was this deliberate or an oversight?

They took away the scrap metal field in Frankfurt, which was handy for those players on with low numbers in-game.

I'll be looking at scrap buy points shortly. Every scrap field in the game is now viable to mine in, and prices will be calc'd by mining time + travel time at a c/s of about 550.

Once the kinks are worked out, it'll be the most flexibility Junkers have ever had, especially when paired with IFF bonuses on POB scrap modules.

Aluminium ore?

Gold ore?

Gold ore?

As I understand it, the sell points are close. As an example Gold ore can be mined in Dublin, and sold to just two NPC bases. Planet New London for 52 NC (New Credits)sand 62 NC at Trafalgar. That is a fair price in that it corresponds to 6200sc/unit at trafalgar in the old currency, but as Gold Ore two units of space. So, 3100sc in the old Sirian Credits (OSC) It's a good price seeing as the PoBs in Dublin buy at 2000 OSC (40 NC today). And don't forget that the return trip to a Dublin PoB brings in supplies for a factory thus making Gold that sells up to 219 NC (21900 Old Credits).

I'm not sure if this was intentional, but the Copper Ore in Coronado is North off the map from NW H-1 at 48039, -1, 50853.

And it seems that Aluminum Ore is in Sigma-15 now at NW H-8.

Helium-3 is now at Sigma-13, NW G-5.

good list
So where should they be transported to be sold? I find the last version is completely different from now.
