[INTERNAL MEMO] Mine shaft developments

Greetings, Platform Managers!

As shared in last week’s company-wide memo, the Drill Core Inc. R ‘n’ D Department are hard at work on various new developments which seek to improve the efficacy of all Platform Managers, and we’d like to share some of these latest initiatives, and how they’ll impact the mine shafts you will discover during your contracts, with you today.

Larger Mineshafts

Due to recent discoveries in a new, thinner type of resolit, the R ‘n’ D Department has now been able to make alterations to the landing sites of mining platforms, allowing a greater variance in the mine shafts you’ll be able to extract valuable resources from on each planet. Not only will you notice more variety in the shape of the mines themselves, but they’ll also be far wider and deeper than previous shafts.

It’s currently estimated that mineshafts will be 3-4 times wider due to these changes, allowing Platform Managers to direct the mining of far more blocks per contract.

More Varied Mineshaft Pathways

Progression in Drill Core Inc.’s understanding of resolit will also have one more notable impact on your mining operations: mineshafts will now have much greater variety in shape, with indestructible resolit blocks creating unique pathways within the shafts themselves.
It’s highly recommended for all Platform Managers to inform your workers of these changes, as they may make returning to the Platform at night a more timely process.

Deeper Drilling Available

The R ‘n’ D Department have also been hard at work in researching new drilling techniques and technologies, and progress in this area now means that all Platform Managers will now be able to drill deeper on planets, going well beyond the previous maximum of 1000m.

This will allow for a notable increase in the excavation of valuable resources, and we look forward to seeing all Platform Managers’ reported income from contracts increasing in the imminent future!

We do hope that the transparency around these upcoming developments has a positive impact on your mining operations going forward, and will be sharing more developments regarding some new mining block discoveries with you soon.
