Welcome to Mirage, the faraway city in Vulcanus, situated between rich calcite mines and lava pools, and beginning its quest deep into the inner workings of legends -

Stationed about 3.5km from my main Vulcanus base, the city belts in rare (and higher) metals and stone, and uses blue chip upcycling to produce legendary materials. So far I have legendary Red, Green, Blue, and Purple science - next I will be trying to figure out Yellow.
All of this is done without any asteriod processing or LDS shuffling.

Here is the main city:

And of course, the sciences:
And here is the structure on the lava pools, the "pool floaties" - each one produces 40-60 rare iron or copper per second:
