Yes, ore usually tops out around 50-60% range. Once in a great while people report getting 70% but I don't think I've seen it above 60's myself.
ON the good side you can almost always find it somewhere in some density.

First, ore spawns at low concentrations.
Second, if an ore spawn over 65% is found, posting a waypoint is senseless, by the time you get there it will be paved out to 45% by tons of folks who didnt spend the time to find that spot but used the posted wp anyhow =)
Third, Ill probably be the one to pave it out from 79 to 45% because I dont want to walk between spots. But Ill find the spot myself.

If you'd like to make some extra credits for all your work surveying, add your resource locations (even if you don't use them) into the ISS database:

I'm on Dantooine and I couldn't find anything above 56%
In order to find higher levels, I suggest looking for a city that is "Sample Rich". This type of city gives 20% more resources and 10% chance of finding resources. There used to be a city that was Sample Rich on Naboo. I have moved to Dantooine and I haven't been back to Naboo in a while. I remember having to survey the area almost hourly in order to get a spot to place a harvestor.
if you know of a Sample Rich city, please share the info

Ore is 'different' from the other minerals. It can be found almost everywhere in some levels. It's like a good black dirt you like to use to grow stuff in.. It's everywhere but not very deep and usually comes by the truckload when you need it.
I've seen Carbonate Ore up to the high 70's, Siliclastic around the high 60's, Intrusive/Extrusive are usually spawned less on Tatooine where I'm from so I don't see much of it.
But I've never complained about a 62+ spot ... and I'd love to see someone place enough harvs to fill this spot I have now... it's over 60% 700m across, peaking at 64%. Then again.. I do drive way out of the normal paths for my ore, but placing 14 at once needs R O O M to fit.
also try swgcraft.com, up-to-date resource lists, no concentrations, just availablilty and resource values.
