====== Mining ======


===== Basic Rules =====

  - It is mandatory to register your Rorqual characters with WC Seat ESI [[https://seat.winterco.org|Winter Coalition SeAT]]. Do not use Rorqual Alts that cannot be registered. (([[http://bi.winterco.org/public/question/cf2f615c-88b1-4de2-81e1-0160d9fd35d8|List of unregistered Rorqual Alts]]))
  - Rorquals need to meet these requirements. Rorquals cannot be saved unless these requirements are followed.
    - Follow the basic fitting requirements, equip PANIC and have PANIC skills. 
    - Always have a cloaked cyno character distanced at exactly 130 km of the capitals. 
    - Join the voice channel before you start. 
    - Be ready to post in ''#help-my-rorq-tackled'' with necessary info (Location, DScan, character name of Rorquals and Cynos, and PANIC duration etc.).
    - Properly activate PANIC and stop the Industrial module in time.
    - Rorquals cannot be saved unless these requirements are followed. 
  - Rorquals should PANIC early if there are subcap miners present.

===== Anomaly Mining =====

==== Common Rules ====

  - The rule is effective in Fraternity sovernity for all types of mining ships and mining activities in Gas sites, Ice sites, //and (Griemeer, Kylixium, Uagenite, Nocxite, Mordunium, Veldspar and Hezorime) Deposit, not Small (Grimeer, …) Deposits.//
  - Always discover and finish the half-done sites (including scattered ores or small quantities) in the local system first before starting a new regulated site((including Gas sites, Ice sites, and Colossal / Enormous Ore sites)). This includes partially finished sites that are there when you enter the system. 
  - You are not allowed to switch to any sites((including Small / Medium / Large sites)) before finishing the current (regulated((including Gas sites, Ice sites, and Colossal / Enormous Ore sites))) ones, except for the cases where all asteroids are occupied by others. 
  - Do not switch to other asteroids before finishing the current one you are on. Do not mine asteroids already being mined by another ship unless given permission.
  - Multiboxers running more than 1 Rorqual must bring their own subcap miners for mining Mercoxit and scattered ores. You may not leave a site with scattered ores in space.
  - Each subcap may not mine different asteroids simultaneously. There should be at least three subcaps for each rock before going to the next.
    - Please communicate in a friendly and polite way first when conflict occurs.
  - Do not leave Cargo Containers, Mobile Tractor Units (MTU), or Mobile Depots deployed after the site is completed. You are free to shoot them if nobody claims them.

==== Ore Sites ====

  - With the exception of mining3 upgrades, a site can be locked to the current miners when 10 or more toons are present by calling the site in ratting channel. Other miners may only enter the site within 10 minutes. If the count is under 10 toons then call the site open again. 
  - //Mining3 upgraded systems are locked at 30 toons.// 
  - It is strictly forbidden for any mining ships to leave for other sites with scattered ores or Mercoxit remaining. Severe punishment will incur once found.
  - Illegal excavation of Mercoxit (for any reason) will be punished immediately, including but not limited to denying docking rights, banned from market services and killing on sight, etc.
  - //Spreading toons over multiple mining anomalies is strongly prohibited.//
  - Mining escalations are available to the player who received the escalation plus any others that player invites to join. 

==== Ice Belts ====

  - Do not mine multiple ice belts unless previous belt is fully occupied. Please concentrate on one belt before starting another. 
  - Always mine the ice asteroids from both sides to the middle.
  - When reporting violations, also take a tactical view screenshot covering the whole ice belt from the upside.

==== Gas Sites ====
These rules are applied to gas site constellations in the sovereignty space of the Coalition.
  - Gas sites can be shared, but a gas cloud is dedicated to the player who starts first unless the player leaves the grid.
  - Do not harvest the gas that others are mining.
  - PvE exception: Vale of the Silent ''E-8CSQ'' constellation sites are a shared Winter Coalition resource. They therefore may also be mined by pilots from [[en:guide:coalition:winter_coalition_member_and_allied_alliances#main_member_alliances|Winter Coalition main member alliances]] <del>and the blue ''Corelum Syndicate'' <''CSE''> alliance</del>.  In E-8CSQ systems, both gas clouds and chemical lab sites are available to be mined by Winter Coalition<del> and Corelum Syndicate</del>. Chemical lab sites that are not in E-8CSQ are not available to be mined except by permission of the sov holder.

===== Moon Mining =====

   * Moons are owned and managed separately by alliance. 
   * In Communal Space, no moons except FRT are allowed unless CEO has approval from Remeleen and it is communicated to Arrowspeeed to record.

===== Others =====

  * Contact your corporation directors should you encounter any violations. When reporting, make sure to take a full screenshot including system name, belts, survey scanning results, Overview, and the asteroid in question.
  * When disputes happen between different language speakers, you may ask the corporation and alliance directors for communication assistance.
  * The Coalition Directors will take the published rules as the basis for management and reserve the right of final interpretation.
