Surface Miner

A Surface Miner is a building which can be constructed on a planet or planetoid in order to passively mine ore at a rate of 1 ore per hour. The ore will then accumulate on the planet until it is transported by a player ship, a player-assigned logistics fleet, or turned into credits by a Reprocessor building.

(How much ore can a planet hold by default?). This limit can be extended by constructing Warehouse Districts which increase the ore storage capacity by 150 each.
