Beckon Industries was formed in 795 AS from several smaller industrial machine shops and welding outfits. Most of their business was planet side,specializing in structures and planet side shipbuilding until 817 AS , when they took over a defunct mining company, consisting of 2 miners and 2 transports. This company was taken over as repayment for a debt.
Captain Beckon was chosen to run the company when the current leader was unable to fulfill his duties, and as he had a wealth of experience in spaceborne operations with his independent trader, he was a natural fit to take over.
The Captain immediately sent out scouts to figure out where to dispatch the miners and transports to. Silver and Helium were good bets in Liberty, whilst the jackpot was hit with Niobdium in O-49. Unfortunately, the O-49 fields was later discovered by IMG, some who would threaten indie miners, others were more cordial and offer membership into the IMG. Mining operations were quick and furious in the O-49 Cloud, with many miners, IMG and Indies, working the field day and night.
Again, fortune took and nosedive when quite a bit of the field had been worked out, the Corsairs who were charged with protecting O-49 from Mollies and the Bretonians started turning on the very Zoners they were charged to protect, and the Miners who were there with the Zoners permission. Add onto this the Phantoms, or at least one of the Phantoms, made it his duty to attack and kill the Indie miners in the system.
