Sorium Harvester

How do you get these to work on say a Comet that has sorium? Or do you just mine like usual and then pick up the sorium?

I believe they only function on gas giants.

And note that they automatically refine it into fuel, so they don't produce any raw sorium.

What I'd do is drop a couple automines on the comet, then let it complete a revolution around the star. Collect the automines and minerals.

Just drop a mass driver on there and forget about it :/

". . .  We know nothing about them, their language, their history or what they look like.  But we can assume this.  They stand for everything we don't stand for.  Also they told me you guys look like dorks. "

But you want to pick up the mines eventually.
