Our mining colonies don't magically grow in systems we have no other colonies in though...
Actually no. Iirc. NPRs also have the full civilian sector INCLUDING civilian miningcolonies that grow magically much like ours.
They must have been transported there before I colonized the system, because I've been blockading the jump points since then. And I actually have both a huge DSTS and a spy ship with big thermal sensors in the system. Apparently I just underestimated how hard it was to find this sort of thing!
Do they suffer or do they don't suffer maintenance failures?
Well, they must have transported the automines there, I think. You could have noticed freighters at such distances with your DSTS. Did you upgrade them
Also I'm not sure if Actives detect anything beside Ground Forces, especially Industrial Sites.
Perhaps your sensors aren't quite enough to show the mining colonies?
Or possibly their mines are in another system and their stuff is being magically transported.
