Resources

There are five core economic resource categories, Volatiles, Metals, Organics, Rare Earth, and Fissile in addition to a variety of non-economic resources (i.e. generally abundant):


 * Volatiles are primarily used for fuel and life support.
 * Metals are primarily used for building structures and ships.
 * Organics are primarily used for life support, lubricants and plastics.
 * Rare Earth elements are primarily used for energy storage and advanced manufacturing processes.
 * Fissile materials are primarily used for energy production.
 * Non-economic resources are used primarily for structural materials and constructions

Resource Distribution by Spectral Type
High level resource distribution (low, medium, high) by spectral type is shown below based on initial surface scans, and minimal core sampling on asteroids near Adalia Prime. Core sampling specific asteroids is likely to identify local variation.
