91.5  18 Camelopardalis  C1A [91455.0 Ls, 2.6e+11 MT, 2.6e+10] Es espectacular, well worth scanning. This system is in the bubble but uninhabited. It has a neutron star, a terraformable planet that has its own asteroid belt, and finally, a type 4 gas giant that has a pristine metallic ring. My system scan netted 240000 CR. There are many Metal Rich planets and all the moons around the PMR gas giant are metal rich
92.3  Arietis Sector ZZ-Y c8  2A [1932.0 Ls, 2.5e+12 MT, 2.5e+11]
92.5  HR 484  1AA [0.0 Ls, 0e+00 MT, NaN] An uninhabited system near the edge of the bubble. Makes for some peaceful mining. A big ring.

93.3  Wolf 1268  - L - 5A [1903.0 Ls, 2.9e+11 MT, 6e+10] There is a single planetary station, Williams Base, this has full RRR facilities but I think it is just a colony. It is orbiting the planet that co-orbits the one with the PMR.
93.4  Iota Cassiopeiae  C3A [163378.0 Ls, 3.9e+10 MT, 3.9e+09] 149000 Ls out so a bit of a trek.

7A [NaN Ls, NaN MT, NaN]
The are 2 stations here each with an excellent range of mining equipment: Zebrowski Orbital, and Hendon Hub. The former is a large station only 50 Ls from the entry star, whilst the latter is an outpost 87 Ls from the main entry star. PMR 3A is only 150 Ls from the main entry star.

97.3  HIP 28122  - H - ABC1A [2052.0 Ls, 4e+11 MT, 4.8e+10] There is a planetary colony with services nearby. Pirate faction seems to have a strong powerbase here (circa 10% influence)
97.5  Ngalia  - M - 9A [1154.0 Ls, 2e+11 MT, 2.9e+10] On the edge of the bubble. Not very good stock of mining equipment in any single station

100.3  HIP 4005  - M - 5A [1815.0 Ls, 1.5e+10 MT, 1.5e+09]
100.9  Hyades Sector KD-S c4-6  - L - A13A [1290.0 Ls, 1e+11 MT, 1.1e+10] An inhabited system on the edge of the bubble. The only station with docking facilities is 'Bose Penal Colony', a planetary military station on the moon A13I (the last moon orbiting the PMR planet).

101.4  HIP 14194  - L - 2A [321.4 Ls, 6.1e+09 MT, 7.1e+08] Watch out, this is a pirate infested system. There is a planetary station, Cartier Landing close to the PMR of interest but it has no outfitting facilities.
101.7  HIP 11137  A1A [1200.0 Ls, 6e+10 MT, 6.8e+09]
101.8  Njikan  - M - 4A [2055.0 Ls, 2.5e+11 MT, 2.5e+10] The only station (a large one at that) is Smeaton Port on planet 3A although it does have a top-notch selection of mining gear and a healthy market.
102.9  HIP 13588  4A [3083.0 Ls, 4.8e+10 MT, 4.8e+09]
103.7  HIP 11417  - L - 2A [1201.0 Ls, 1.5e+10 MT, 1.5e+09] Has a population of 27 at the current time! There is a single planetary station a long way away from the PMR with few facilities.

106.6  HIP 118213  - M - 3A [0.0 Ls, 2.9e+10 MT, 3e+09] Metallic ring is very close to sun, 20Ly. Surface temp is 4661K, hmmm, could be a walk-in barby this one. It is a single ring so good for starters.
106.8  Lyncis Sector OS-U b2-5  5A [733.0 Ls, 2.3e+10 MT, 2.4e+10]
107.0  Torno  - M - 9A [2293.0 Ls, 5.7e+11 MT, 5.7e+10] An inhabited system on the edge of the bubble.

It has good mining equipment stockage except it does not stock class 2 mining lasers.
107.6  HR 275  A2A [1340.0 Ls, 3.2e+11 MT, 3.8e+10] An uninhabited system on the edge of the bubble. The closest inhabited system is around 11Ly away.

109.1  Tiraon  - M - 2B [1378.0 Ls, 1.3e+12 MT, 2.1e+11] The metallic ring is the outer one, the first time I have ever seen that. I almost missed it! For this reason it is a biggy (outer rings are often by far the biggest portion of the overall ring)
110.0  HR 8514  - L - 5A [2533.0 Ls, 7.5e+09 MT, 8.2e+08] Beware an Anarchy system controlled by a pirate faction. There is a large Ocellus Starport, Hennen Station and an outpost, Coleman Hub, near to the target ring. Hennen Station has a great stock of mining equipment.
111.3  Hajong  - M - 2A [1878.0 Ls, 1.8e+11 MT, 1.8e+10] Orbiting the PMR is a large industrial station that buys all PMR commodities Crampton Dock. It seems to stock all mining equipment as well.
112.2  Pegasi Sector CL-X c1-17  1A [1269.0 Ls, 1.2e+12 MT, 6.4e+11] A single ring and a whopper at that. With multiple Painite and Serendibite hotspots.

113.4  64 Arietis  - M - 5A [1624.0 Ls, 2.6e+10 MT, 2.6e+09] Last time I was here it was an unlawful system, ie. there are no System Authorities, which means that just about EVERYONE is a pirate. Unlawfuls systems are great, complete chaos!
113.4  Arietis Sector UD-T b3-4  1A [280.0 Ls, 2.6e+10 MT, 7.1e+09]
113.8  HIP 16607  - H - 1A [2518.0 Ls, 9.9e+10 MT, 2e+10] The "Thome Gateway" station is near the ring and has muchos mining gear

116.1  Mesarthim  A1A [1108.0 Ls, 3e+11 MT, 3e+10] An uninhabited system on the edge of the bubble. The PMR is about 1100Ls from the entry star and has a single ring. A good one for beginners worrying about where to mine as it is a single ring.
118.0  Arietis Sector CQ-Y c15  5A [661.0 Ls, 2.7e+11 MT, 2.7e+10]
118.1  HIP 1026  - L - 10A [2447.0 Ls, 2e+10 MT, 2.1e+09]

8A [1599.0 Ls, 1.6e+10 MT, 1.6e+09]
The stations are very near the entry star and both Schiltberger Dock and Meaney Dock (no large landing pads) have good mining outfitting facilities. The 2 ringed PMR planets co-orbit each other.

Notes:
  • Some of the rings have images associated with them, click on the ring name and the image will open in another tab. If the system is in Inara then the name will automatically link you through to the system details there (when available) where you can find details on stations, prices, outfitting options, best places to sell, etc. .
  • The trouble with most trading sites/ data sources is that the data is often out of date within a few days. The best way to find a place to sell is to open the galaxy map and filter the map for Industrial and Hi-Tech systems and then look for those in an economic state of Boom, this can also be filtered in the galaxy map.The best stations to sell in are usually Hi-Tech stations followed by Industrial ones. However on the edge of the bubble trading data is usually non-existant or completely out of date so chances are you are on your own out there. ED updates trade prices frequently, and wars, boom and bust will all have an effect on the prices as well.
  • For a guide to mining check out the 'Mining' section in the links page: Elite dangerous links

I have found many mining systems some not known in any other sources, I am most proud of LFT 65 as it is near the centre of the bubble (the closest to Sol that I know of). I found it whilst doing detailed surface scans on all the White Dwarves within the bubble (they are very common within the bubble). I will make a list and an explanation as to why they are a good source of income some other time. My favourite pristine metallic ring is in the Alkupai system where the ring is around a Tauri T star so it is always lit up

Acknowledgement goes to Gorrister and his Call of the Wild mining thread on the Frontier Forums. He has spent a lot of time collecting and checking systems. Much of the work is due to the fastidious efforts of this and other long gone sources, I am just the techie putting it together.
