Polonium - Have you found any? Where?
Probably a question for the Horizons forum but I'll start it here.

Has anyone come across Polonium in their planetside materials searches? (I can't reach Vladimir Putin, or FSB/KGB) If so, what kind of planet(s) did you find it on? Would you be willing to share the location info?

I've found plenty of the "very rares" Technetium, Yttrium, Antimony, Tellurium, Ruthenium, but wonder if Polonium should be reclassified as "Extremely Rare".

I've found some good stuff on metal rich planetoids.

Then it must be a very rare item. Reminds me of rare drops in Warframe

Its got a lot of data for stuff outside the bubble, but plenty of bubble systems in there.

SMRFKILR i will share with you a secret, and leave it here for anyone to stumble across in case it is of significance one day.

WREDGUIA QK-B C15-0

System is about 1085ly from bubble. You can buy the system data from any station (I think). In this system there is a rich metal bodied planet called WREDGUIA QK-B C15-0 A 1. The planets is mainly made of Iron, Nickle, Manganese, Zinc, Chromium, and traces of Mercury, Niobium, and the ONLY exceedingly rare element that spawns on the planet, Polonium. It can be yeilded from both types of outcrop, metallic meterorites and mesosiderites- yet to find one in bronzite chondrite.

It's next neighbour WREDGUIA QK-B C15-0 A 2 has phosphorus, sulphur, and an assortment of uncommon finds like Tin and Germanium.

I have no idea if this planet is an important source of Po, however it is the ONLY planet I have found where an extra rare element is the ONLY element to spawn in that bracket, I assume leading to a higher chance of Po being encountered over another.

That said I have spent over 6 hours here and only found 11 samples.

As necros go, its not a bad one. Just over a month.

We tend to from on necros more than a couple of weeks old, because they are either often of no more use to the OP or anyway no longer relevant.

In this case its probably safe to assume OP already has their answer and no need to resurrect a dead thread.

So while the info you provided is great, would have been better to simply start a new thread letting people know.

Locking.
