Talk:Mining

Which mining process, open pit or underground would be prefferred? What useful elements could be found in the rocks that are strewn on the martian plains? T.Neo 12:58, 1 October 2008 (UTC)

These are good questions. I can't answer them right now. We should start collecting the appropriate data from the rovers and make them available in Marspedia systematically. Then we shall be able to answer those high level questions. -- Rfc 19:54, 1 October 2008 (UTC)

But the NASA rovers were designed to look out for evidence of water, hardly the kind of exploration needed to prospect for the mines. T.Neo 07:17, 2 October 2008 (UTC)
