Optimising our mining operation requires a scalpel, not a hammer. (Hammers available as a seperate upgrade, of course).

This research project will focus on improvements in storage, sorting and additional base construction tools.

Building a huge mining operation is a job for machines, not man!
Medium
This wide-ranging project will design machines for automated excavation and construction in addition to improving the options available for traversing your base.
Medium
In addition to automatic excavation this project will seek to produce an explosive which can be used the clear out a large area.

We have encountered a problem in our search for resources to expand our base!
Medium
Our ore scanner is configured for locating unknown materials for research and classification. Its ability to find new sources of specific known materials is limited. It should be possible to use a small quantity of spare ore to act as an advanced filter allowing us to locate just the resources we require.
