How to Mine Latinum in Star Trek: Fleet Command

Star Trek: Fleet Command lets you explore star systems, build ships, mine resources, complete missions, join alliances and battle other gamers. One of the important tasks in the game is Mining. You will need to perform your daily goals, for missions, and to complete events. In Star Trek: Fleet Command, mining is a great way to gather new materials, especially crystals and ore. There are plenty of different crystals and ores to collect, and while you can produce some at your station (like tritanium and dilithium), you will need to send out your fleet to collect the other materials. In this article, we will explain how to mine Latinum in Star Trek: Fleet Command.

How to Mine Latinum in Star Trek: Fleet Command

Latinum can be mined throughout the Neutral Zone and the Faction Zones, and best mined with the purpose-built Ferengi D’Vor. The base rate on these nodes improves in higher-level systems. Furthermore, there’s a 1 in 8 chance of spawning a “rich” raw latinum node, which offers mining at double the rate. Suliban is a special system and has only rich nodes of various qualities.

After entering a system, you can set a course for nodes allowing you to salvage these materials. You’ll have to find each node manually as there doesn’t seem to be any specific mining areas in Star Trek Fleet Command.

It can be refined from level 16 in the refinery on a 22hr cooldown. The refining process converts raw latinum into latinum at a guaranteed rate. The conversion process produces ship parts for the Ferengi D’Vor as a byproduct. There are two systems in Borg space that have the fastest raw latinum nodes in the game.

You’ll need special latinum cells acquired by hitting assimilated traders in Borg space and refining the ‘Latinum Antiques” they provide in order to gain access to these systems. Latinum nodes can be found in the following systems:
