Hi All,
I went around a couple planets and the best ore percentages I could find with my survey tool (93% experimented)were in the 50's range. I have seen steel deposits in the low 90's. Is this a common trend for mining ore? What are the highest numbers in percents you have seen when surveying ore?
thanks,

Ore has predominantly been poor concentration. On occasion you can get lucky and find it higher than 65%, but that is rare. (And usually if you do, it is in the mountains or the middle of a body of water so you can't get a harvester on it.)
Best concentration of any ore I have found since I became an artisan 5 months ago has been 78% on Ofick Ore out by Vera Bay on Naboo. (large lake area south west of Keren). Usual concentrations are 48-60%

I saw a usable spot with 78% once in 6 months of heavy mining. 65% is about as good as they normally get.
