68.3  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.
70.9  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.
75.5  HIP 8865  - H - 2A [4667.0 Ls, 4.4e+11 MT, 5e+10] There is a large station, Solvyev Orbital, on the co-orbiting gas giant of the PMR planet. It has a very good selection of mining equipment and a healthy market.
77.3  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.

91.6  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

108.5  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.
109.7  HIP 25052  2A [1124.0 Ls, 2.1e+11 MT, 2.6e+10] About 30 Ly from Ix. Within the bubble but uninhabited.
111.1  HIP 113905  1A [928.0 Ls, 4.1e+11 MT, 5.6e+10] An uninhabited system within the bubble. The PMR is on the first planet about 920 Ls out.

It is also a single ring close that is close to the arrival star, ideal for beginners.
112.7  20 Arietis  - M - 3A [3175.0 Ls, 3.4e+11 MT, 4e+10]

115.5  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)

123.6  HR 3277  - M - 6A [3434.0 Ls, 1.8e+10 MT, 2.2e+09] There is a large station orbiting the metallic ringed planet.
123.6  Frey  - H - 4A [2693.0 Ls, 7.5e+11 MT, 7.5e+10] Garratt Station, a large industrial station, is near to the ring and has a very good selection of mining equipment and a healthy market. The PMR is extremely large

125.7  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.
126.8  Delkar  - M - 7A [2802.0 Ls, 3.8e+11 MT, 4.5e+10] Only the planetary station stocks Collector Limpet Controllers and no A rated ones at that so you'll have to kit up elsewhere. 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.

The planetary station has a good stock of mining lasers and prospector controllers but only size 1 and 2 refineries and no collector limpet controllers. The PMR is 4147 Ls from the entry star.
139.7  HIP 20491  - L - 6A [1365.0 Ls, 4.2e+11 MT, 4.2e+10]
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.
