 Notes
24.3  LFT 65  4A [1761.0 Ls, 3.7e+11 MT, 3.8e+10] Uninhabited. A white dwarf system so watch out when entering the system.
91.0  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.
91.8  21 Eridani  ABCD4A [1539.0 Ls, 7.1e+10 MT, 7.1e+09]
91.9  GCRV 375  2A [1620.0 Ls, 6.5e+11 MT, 6.5e+10]
4A [2959.0 Ls, 2.3e+11 MT, 2.3e+10] 		An uninhabited system within the bubble. One of the gas giants has a water world orbiting it.
93.2  LHS 2661  6A [2156.0 Ls, 3.3e+11 MT, 3.4e+10] Uninhabited. A white dwarf system so watch out when entering the system.
96.4  Bhare  - M - A3A [2086.0 Ls, 3.6e+10 MT, 3.6e+09] The only large station with any decent facilities is Pacheco Orbital. It has a good selection of mining lasers and refineries but virtually no limpet controllers what so ever.
96.8  Wargis  - M - 13A [683.0 Ls, 2.6e+11 MT, 4e+10] An Industrial system well within the bubble.

I have mined this ring several times and alway found it to be a bit dark. However, with the new night vision this should not be a problem.

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  • The trouble with most trading sites/ data sources is that the data is often out of date within a few days.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 However on the edge of the bubble trading data is usually non-existant or completely out of date so chances are you are on your own out there.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.
