NOTE: Work in Progress
The menu shown on Enceladus Prime can seem like a lot to take in. This guide aims to aide in making sense of the menu, as well as providing tips as to how the information some provides and lets you change can aide with your experience.

Menus
Mineral market
The mineral market is where the selling price of minerals is determined. The market also allows you to "play it" and use the predictions to potentially earn more than was spent, or be unlucky and lose some. It allows up to 10,000 tonnes to be stored in the market.
Predictions are referenced from previous activity, so a gradual decline is more likely to spike later on. A geologist can help more accurately predict these future fluctuations.
Any ores you had from a dive will be sent to this area when the "Send to storage" button is pressed, however any ore that doesn't equal a tonne will be left in the market until more is added.
