It seems like mining hasn't really been benefited from the new missions, so I was thinking about a bit of a change that could be implemented

It seems to me to be logical that certain planets would have higher concentrations of specific elements, no matter how many deposits they are split into.

It might be worth running missions, if it could be used to identify planets that would be likely to have permanently higher concentrations than usual, of valuable elements.

I'm imagining that the prospectors have got wind of a planet that has really high concentrations of diamond, or moissanite for example.  they tell you that miners will consistently identify new deposits of this mineral, and they find a big deposit when you land.  This way, you know what you're going in for, and you know that it will be worth colonising, since new high value minerals will continue to develop.

What does everyone think?
