I am currently torn between just cheering this on, ripping one of the AFM out of my exploration Asp Explorer in favour of a cargo rack, converting my Imperial cutter into an explorer build (which would be ironically appropriate as I already used it for the "Jaques Big Jump" CG), or biting the bullet of buying an Anaconda. In the latter two cases, I would carry Fuel Limpets & Controller in addition to meta alloys; got the decal, might just as well do the job.
When mining(not sure if horizon only) asteroids also drop MATERIALS.
That engineers and your ship use(reload afmu, ammo adn so on)
So drill an asteroid until it drops nothing more, check contacts for iron, nickel adn whatnot.
Do try, grab a sidey, slap a couple mining lasers and go exploring.
You only need refinery if you are planning on mining for metals and minerals.
The Fuel Rats stand ready for anyone running into serious fuel issues. Note that we prefer rescues in open, also due to instancing, yet there are also Mobius Rats out there.
