Overview

Mirfak is a hot dry world with a population of roughly 49,000 in 3028. The planet has several small productive mines of germanium and other valuable radioactive ores. The local government was attempting to establish larger, more profitable mining concerns to improve trade. The degree of security surrounding that matter suggests a substantial find somewhere in the Mirfak system. The planet had no HPG facility.

On the 23rd of May 3072 forces from the Calderon Protectorate raided a number of Taurian Concordat worlds, including Mirfak.

Companies

• Taurus Majoris Mining - prior to the formation of the Calderon Protectorate in 3066.
