Tried the Jonai/HIP 93377 region over the weekend before. I looked around and did a bunch of missions to try and build up some reputation with the factions. Looks like the HIP 93310 Dominion faction is trying to expand out of its neighboring system into HIP 93377. I am not sure what can be done about it since in their home system there are no competing factions, not even a pirate faction. However, I am not overly familiar with the system flipping mechanics of the game. I like the idea of the goal though, maybe you could suggest this to Frontier as a community goal (they say they are open to suggestions for CGs). The Main problem for me was that Jonai was an independent system with no factions from any of the three big powers. However, if anyone is around there I could wing up at some time. I am an opportunistic player, I like bounty hunting, trading, exploring, mining, completing the missions on the bulletin board.
Found another system with a similar set-up nearby. The hi-tech system is called Suya and the system with the pristine metallics is HR 8210. However in this case Suya has a Fed faction operating out of it. Actually there is a 2nd Hi Tech system within a couple of jumps (Tjakiri or something which I noticed recently is in lockdown mode which translates to higher bounties all round). Yembo is 3/4 jumps away if anyone can remember that CG and is the closest source of Resonating Separators (where's Apalar when you need it). The good thing about Suya/HR 8210 is that your are not far away from the end of populated space, so a couple of jumps and you can be out doing some deep space exploration.
I also noticed that there are many well known pristine metallics systems in this area, Frey, Bhotho, Bhumliaurt, Atins, Kwange are all ones I am familiar with. Have also found several (5 or 6) over the last weekend. I have never seen so many in one area.
Someone mentioned Delkar, this is an interesting area, it is in the only area I know of where there is an Alliance aligned system (Turditani/Arques), an Empire aligned system (Codorain/Komovoy) and a Federation based system (all the rest) so you can rep up with all three. Note that with PP the alignment of these systems is constantly changing so this may not be true at the time you are reading it.
I play ED time mainly between 17:00-19:30 hours most evenings and 05:00-08:00 hours most weekends. Feel free to add me to your play list.
