Volantis System
Some of the best mining in the known galaxy...if you have the cred for it.
Volantis is a star system made up of planets that are naturally uninhabitable and have historically resisted terraforming. Early attempts were made to terraform at least two planets in the system before the Collapse and the smaller bases in the system were set up, but transporting workers in and out of the system was expensive. After the Collapse, the system was abandoned due to a lack of ability to access any of the ore-rich planets.
When the system was finally moved into again, attempts were made to pick up the same as before but after significant failures were made in repairs to the now somewhat dilapidated bases on some of the planets, the temporary space station that had been built for the attempt was developed into a permanent structure that became Elysium Station. There are small bases on Seano Shani, Osleed's Landing, and Asherah but these are never home to anyone, merely temporary shelter for rotating teams of miners.
Most of the planets in the system are full of iron and other metals, though there is also often stone taken from the planets as well to transport to other systems for construction.

Men and women died to make Volantis what is it today. They still die...only now it's for cred that they don't even see most of the time.
