My mineral survey device does notlisttypes of aluminum that I previously sampled from the Anchorhead area
My Chemical Device does not show a fibreplast that i have sompled before either.

Hi iwor,
Resources are only present for a limited amount of time (determined randomly). After a while, old resources will "shift" out and new ones "shift" in. This is part of the game mechanics.
Check out swgcraft.com to get a listing of the resources that are currently available on each server. There is a certain delay in the data but it should give you a good picture of what is and what is not available anymore.

Yep, and I don't think the exact same resource type & name ever respawns after it's gone. You will fairly often see the same resource on more than one planet at the same time, however.

Every resource leaves the game after a bit. The average period for a resource to be present is about 7 days. If the one you had sampled is not listed on the tool anymore, then it has left and will never reappear.
