=Finding Minerals=
Each Mineral can be found only by gathering soil samples on a certain [[Planets|planet]]. Moreover, not all planets have Minerals. If the player has used up all the chances for gathering soil samples on the current planet, he can only reattempt to find the Mineral on the same planet after entering a [[Black Hole]]or look for the mineral on other planets. The option to gather soil samples is unlocked through '''[[Planetary Research]]'''.
Each Mineral has a different '''base drop chance''', which increases as the player sends more [[Resources#Scientists|Scientists]] to the current planet. For each additional Scientist that is stationed on the planet, the base chance is increased by 10% of its initial value.
