- I have trimmed the section discussing the wrong sized Laser heads and comparisons between the Hofstede 2 and Helix 2 since they are not relevant to the Prospector. I have just saved the change so it may take a few minutes or more to update in the video.
This video will help guide you into the world of Moon Mining with a Prospector. Providing you with my opinions on Ship Loadouts including Laser Heads, Laser Modules as well as tips & trips.

I've been mining for a long time with both the Prospector and, more recently, the Mole. This vid is BY FAR the best beginner's guide I've seen yet. Props to you dude. You covered everything well without any bull crap and everything you said is spot on. Great job.
Mate! Thank you so much for the kind words! I did put a bit of effort into this one and it's been really popular. So glad people are getting use out of it. 07
Best video I could find on RUclips explaining mining. Everything was really easy to understand and digestible. Im subscribed!
Awesome, thank you! With the 3.23 UEC wipe me and my mates are doing a lot of mining as its very profitable, fun and chill at the same time
A very nice video on the subject of mining. I wanted to update my knowledge as I haven't mined for a long time. It contained all the important information and some good tips. Many thanks for this!
My pleasure! There is a Part 2 video as well with some corrections and more things I missed
@@Thunderballs_SC Yeah- I saw that too :-) Keep it up!
Mining is always nice. And the paint is super important, your such a target mining everything that you can do to reduce that. Personally I go for gold and bexalite, I only pick up quant right at the end if I'm super motivated.
Save the Mole saddle bags. Land, store, remove an item like a gun, save, reinstall the item and save. Now when you ship blows up or you claim it, still keeps the mole bags.
have this in Part 2 :)
This was a great mining guide for beginner
Thanks! This was my first big hit with views, now with over 4k views and no promotions on it.
Great video, a really good overview
Much appreciated! I'm really enjoying solo mining atm
Solid vid, thankyou
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for the feedback!
Fantastic stuff, thank you. Is the graphic at 7:30 the right one..? Where to refine?
wow, no its not, apologies for that. This is the correct sheet.

Great, informative vid. You can buy the pods at CRU-L1 refinery. Question is, how to you get them out of inventory onto your ship when you cannot use the tractor beam in armistice?
Yea I've got some in my local inventory but can't drop them, can't add then in loadout, can't do anything with the from what I can tell
@@Thunderballs_SC I have put in a ticket to see if CIG have any idea. They will recommend the issue council and they won't do anything as it won't be upvoted
You can use your tractor beam in a hanger
@@rorycarter4765 you can't drop the ore bags from your inventory though
Nice video, subbed!
Thanks mate! Glad I could be helpful. 07
great video. do you know if your prospector will keep the bags upgrade if it explodes randomly due to server farts?
In Part 2 I show you how to make them persist past explosions etc.
Great guide dude!
Thanks mate! 07
Between scanning rock not functionning, cracked rocks that dont crack, laser that is offset to the bottom of the target (it should be right centered at the optimal distance) I regret the 3.22 that was playable. 3.23.1 is just bad cosmetic candy sugar for the eyes, with bad ergonomy. But nice video for newbees, welldone
Hi, If you go for Hephastinite, Beryl, Boarse or Laranite when you only take 100% clean rocks. you get more money out of it the the 30% Tier 1 rule you have set your self. You would need to take only 38% or higher Tier 1 materials to compensate those TIer 2 materials. The aim would be a 100k profit from a refinery job with Dinyx Solventation with the normal Prospector bags.
The Hofstede S1 is a good choice of a laser. The Klein S1 has a too high minimum power to break the secondary rocks and no module slot. It can be helpful in a team situaiton to crack bigger rocks with 2 Prospectors.
I'm using the Helix, not the Klein. You can always compensate the high min power with max distance, I've not had issues with the smaller rocks/fragments.
I am also about to release a Part 2 video on this with some corrections and omissions!
I almost exclusively use Ferron Exchange and I will discuss this in Part 2.
Thanks for the feedback on the Teir 2's, I'll test them out.
Nice Video. I made the mistake and took the Lance MH1 Laser head. i thought, the Prospector had only the possibility to put a S1 laserhead? So then i will soon change to a Helix or Hofstede-S2 And try it thisway:)
Sorry yes I made a .mistake with the size, however you can still get a size 1 helix
@@Thunderballs_SC Ok. I thought :-) Well glad we sorted it out, hehe. But, Keep up the good work with the Vids my friend
@@dinuraivo48 thank you very much 07
I LIKE YOUR VIDS.
Thanks mate!
Saw this and thought that is a well put together video full of excellent information I haven't flown my prospector in a while flew to cru l1 station didn't appear logged off in bed nearly died from lack of oxygen quickly put my helmet on, logged back in station was there yay!! landed on the pad game glitched my ship upside down after i had "successfully" landed and turned my engines off managed to get out and store ship phew that was close ran to refinery and bought a helix un stored my ship ran to hanger, dammit i forgot to equip helix, ran back to terminal stored ship equipped helix went to retrieve prospector "oh" i have to insurance claim my ship for some unknown reason wait 3 minutes go to hanger and the game has lost my ship apparently I have a new invisible stealth technology equipped prospector in Hanger 1 which is unable to be stored again, some days I hate this game other days I really hate this game. Great video it's a shame the game is such a pig sometimes, most the time, nearly always 99.9% of the time, the other masochistic .1% is what keeps me playing.
hahaha sorry that made me chuckle a little :P Thanks for the great feedback, gotta love Star Cits random I hate you moments
Charts are pretty nice. I dont mine but if I di.....
Thank you for posting this, it’s very helpful.
I have a question though, if you have volatile cargo on board, does the timer reset if you dock at a port?
It will stop once your store the ship using an asop terminal
Ok, I'll think about that question differently now, if you mean so you can retrieve it and continue to a different port, I am not sure, I will test it and confirm tonight but I highly doubt it will reset.
@@Thunderballs_SC cheers mate, it didn’t reset but I was able to clear the hangar and jettison it (didn’t know how to do that till I saw your video).
Thanks again!
If I am right, the prospector can only use a lvl 1 laser.
yes, that is correct, I made a mistake in the video where I said I use the S2 lasers
Quick question for mining types, when mining on planets and moons, do you use VTOL for fuel efficiency? Does it help or hurt? Thanks 🤔
It would definitely be required if you are on a planet with a heavy atmosphere in over to maintain height and position. On places like Cellin, it's not required.
Do we have anything from CIG about prospector "turret" to be able to move the minign head again?
I haven't seen anything as yet...
Hi. I think your conclusions/interpretations of the laser power in the modules might not be correct. For example the Focus3: you will not get an increase in power, but a decrease of 5%. Therefore 95% power of the lasers maximum. Thats why the figure is orange and not green. So the Reiger3 increases the lasers power by 25%. Thats why ist is written as 125%.
That sheet is a little off-putting where it shows the Laser power as a positive, when all other negative bonuses are shown as negatives.
ATTENTION: prospector can only mount size 1 mining lasers
Yup, the first line of the description has a correction there.
I have trimmed the section discussing the wrong sized Laser heads and comparisons between the Hofstede 2 and Helix 2 since they are not relevant to the Prospector. I have just saved the change so it may take a few minutes or more to update in the video.
For GOODNESS sake take down the video and add a little overlay that says HELIX 1 not HELIX 2 then put the video back up. I have just spent 100k on a useless mining head and wasted about 2 hrs trying to work out why it doesnt appear in the Utilities on my prospector. A little anoyed I must say!
My apologies, I did update the video description with a correction on the first line a couple days ago and mentioned it in Part 2 as well. I'll happily send you 100k in game if you want.

@@Thunderballs_SC Thanks for that. And its not really a problem. 3 runs with the stock prospector and I will be good. Its just that beautiful as this game can be and is you never actually know when things go wrong if its you doing something wrong or its the game bugging out. Many a time I have mined for a couple of hours jsut to have the game blow up the ship of the Greyroc to mysteriously shut down and its always 50/50 if it was me doing something wrong or the game has decided just then to crap itself. You unfortunately late last night caught my frustration limit lol. My apologies. Great video btw I enjoyed it a lot and learnt a lot as well. Thanks
All good mate, in Part 2 I have a montage of explosions including one as you mentioned, random explosion lol.
can doing the mole bag swap be done in a hangar in 3.24
