A mining gadget is a handheld device which can be placed on a minable rock to modify its stats (such as resistance and instability), allowing prospectors to make the mining process easier and safer, or quicker and riskier.<ref>Template:Cite RSI</ref>
Usage
After purchasing a mining gadget and finding a suitable rock to be mined, the player will have to exit their ship and attach the gadget to the rock. Once placed, the gadget's user interface will prompt the player to calibrate it by tuning the propagation, field range, and axial scatter properties to find the rock's resonant frequency. Finally, upon successful calibration, the device must be activated. Prospectors may now crack the rock and enjoy the altered stats conferred upon it by the mining gadget. After the rock has been fractured, the gadget can be collected again.<ref>Inside Star Citizen: Sweet Gadget of Mine. Retrieved 2021-11-06</ref>
