[[File:MiningColony-TPOV.jpg|thumb|right|250px|A mining facility]]
'''Mining''' was the business of [[Mineral/Legends|mineral]] and metal excavation and extraction. Many [[Planet/Legends|planets]], such as [[Peragus II]], [[Ord Cestus/Legends|Ord Cestus]], or [[Bespin/Legends|Bespin]], were constantly mined. The [[Expansion Region/Legends|Expansion Region]] got its name as the planets there were constantly mined when first discovered. Mining was an important source of [[Galactic Credit Standard|credits]].

Some mining was conducted using hand-held lasers.
