Overview

Had an crazy idea that I'm going to switch to second account and start Low Temperature Diamond (LTD) mining grind for credits to buy a Fleet Carrier Smiley :)

My second account CMDR "Snake Man PMC" had Lakon Type-7 from previous Start From Scratch Trading adventure. Plan was to mine LTDs and get a ride to best selling station from Fleet Carriers which taxi miners around.

2020-06-14T15:51:53Z CMDR Snake Man PMC was in-game, lets start grinding some credits Smiley ;)

Outfitted lakon type-7 with mining lasers, refinery, prospector/collector limpet controller and detailed surface scanner. I think my credit balance was somewhere around 90-94 million credits, not sure (would need to check journals).

Checked VicTics miners tool, Col 285 Sector CC-K a38-2 is now the new LTD triple overlapping hotspot. Set my course there and off I go.

Lasers hit first ice cube about 1645hrs UTC.

I don't have any CMDR diary text for this but there are a lot of youtube videos for this mining. Check out PMC elite dangerous youtube playlist: Low Temperature Diamonds Mining (2nd Account) Part 1, 2020-06-14 for details.
