Sectors with all resource types?
I know of a few, namely Grand Exchange, Family Zhin, and I think Pontifex's Claim. Anyone know of any others?

No sector has ALL resource types, but in most sectors it only takes just a jump or three to reach whatever you need.

I like to build in Heretic's End. Good, empty space I can claim for myself, although gas miners have to travel a bit farther. Of course, with the Split DLC it's now connected to Xenon space, which represents a new challenge...

I just named THREE. I can probably add trinity sanctum III to that list too. And Black Hole sun, since both zones are technically in one sector.

Sectors with all ressources around (max in adjacent sectors) is something reasonable. Usually I like second contact breakpoint. Grand exchange group is great too. Trinity III (a bit less rich may be). Other examples exists.

I see, you're counting different zones as the same sector. I wasn't, which is why I didn't count Grand Exchange; none of its single zones has everything and my miners always spread between I and III.

I didn't even know there were any resources in Pontifex's Claim at all. I've never seen them. Seriously, it has silicon, ore, AND all three gases? If so, it needs a nerf. I don't think any one zone/sector should have everything.

Black Hole Sun doesn't seem very rich. Even if it does kinda have all of them, I'm not sure I'd count on it for a base.

Sectors matter, primarily because of autominers. Grand Exchange is all counted as a single sector, and autominers will travel between the zones because of it. Though if we're talking about single zones, that would have to be Family Zhin and Probably trinity sanctum.

And yes black hole sun as well, because while it may not be abundant, all six major resources can be found between the two zones (methane to the south of the second zone).

And I think pontifex's claim had all the resources as well, though I haven't double checked. But there is a fairly large cloud of both solids and gasses immediately north of the main highway curve there, and I think several scattered pockets around the sector as well.

Huh, ok. I didn't think there any that really had ALL of them.

Tharka's Ravine XVI and Tharka's Ravine VIII combined, i`ve found have both gasses and ores, Situated next to each other means you can choose either as a good setup for Claytronics i`ve found. Obviously this is part of the Split Vendetta DLC and dependant on choices made during plot, but all the same, working for me.

Family Zhin and both Savage Spur have all resources except Ice. The Void is reach for all types of resources including Ice.

I built an entire economy without leaving Asteroid Belt (excluding energy cells, which I produce in Venus and import to Asteroid Belt).

Hatikvah's choice 3 and Holy Vision should have all resources. But Holy Vision has traces at best.

Eighteen Billion used to have all resources, but with 5.0 and Tides of Avarice, Ice was removed in all adjacent sectors to Windfall sectors, including EB.
Probably done to harass players to buy and play nice with the Vigor Syndicate. Only at +20 with them, you are allowed to mine Ice in the DLC sectors.
