- | {{eve:industry:mining:hulk01.jpg?200 }}A miner has two choices for selecting a mining site: asteroid belts and gravimetric sites. Both are viable but we will focus on asteroid belts for now, as gravimetric sites are a more advanced topic that will be covered in later parts of this guide. | + | {{eve:industry:mining:covetor01.jpg?200 }}A miner has two choices for selecting a mining site: asteroid belts and gravimetric sites.

Nearly every system in EVE contains asteroid belts and the number of belts varies from system to system. When deciding on a system to mine it is always advantageous to look for a system with a high number of belts. Another thing to consider is the security status of a system. The lower the security rating, the better the quality of the asteroids. High-Sec and Low-Sec systems (1.0-0.1) only contain low-end ores. If you want valuable high-end ores, they are only found in Null-Sec (0.0) space or wormholes. | Nearly every system in EVE contains asteroid belts and the number of belts varies from system to system.
