Maybe you should just read your post's one more time before you post them.

Artifacts.

*****SPOILERS*****

Some spots in the Omicron Gamma northen cloud give artifacts.

Also, the cloud with planet Vespus in Omicron Theta gives Alien Organisms.

Both fetch a good price in Liberty.

You can mine gold?
But where can you sell it for a v. good price?
Also if anyone is inclined to tell me, where can you sell cardamine for the maximum profit?

hmm I mine big things that contain diamonds, there called Transports or if bored then Rouges and steal there Cardamine

I am the one true.... (Pasta??????)

get in with the Mollys then go to Arranmore in Dublin and mine there for gold. Sell it in Kusari or Tripoli s'yard.

Diamonds in Rheinland and the Omegas. Sell on most House capital planets

Alien Organisms in the upper Taus, sell at Camb. RS.

..or just hang around a trade lane exit and shoot whatever comes out..

..you think you're done with the past; but the past isn't done with you..

Trade route Calculators I wrote them becasue i needed to know the answers to the questions here

Silverton Astroidfield in Colorado. It's very save because all you probably will encounter is some L.Rogues, Xenos, Lane Hackers and perhaps some Outcasts.
If you're friendly with Liberty Police ans such, you can hang out near Pueblo and run for savety when you get scared, but a good VHF (Anubis for example) is usualy enough.
You can Sell the Silver at Cal.Minor for a fair price, or make the run to Planet New Tokyo for a couple of credits more.
or don't...

*** To Freelance, or not to Freelance, that is the question ***

Nice job on the calculator, cueball. I'd say mining for diamonds in Omega-11 is the best. Not because you earn a lot of money, but because there's that element of danger (you know, the danger of your Ship being torn apart by te radioactivity)

Niobium, Tau 37, 100% drop rate. Why waltz when you can rock and roll?

Fri Jun 20, 2003 6:19 pm by Tawakalna

I'm usually too busy admiring the scenery in Tau37 to remember to go mining (or my hold's chock-full of cardamine..)

ever try running a level 4 dagger from the outcast homeplanet- not gonna spoil here- through all the major house and systems and then into liberty- 2nd time i ran into junkers which i nuetral wid and they said hand over the cardsmine- hit cruise and left the area. needless to say a dagger in omicron alpha was very fun........

yeah you could MINE transports but then again its illegal and then the houses come down on you really fast then youre gone almost as fast. considering that most transport conveys follow along patrol routes so if you do attack a convoy it's most likely that they'll retaliate anyway!!!!!!!!!!!

Remember you can't spell Insane without sane!!!!!

Dresden, Niobium (there are rich deposits inside Red Hessian/Bundschuh ships).

The advantage is that you do not have to leave the system to fetch the maximum price for the stuff.
