 ====== THE (FEDERAL) COPPER MINE ======
+{{:copper_mine_firetown_scenic_2d.png?direct&400|}}
 ===== Overview =====
   * **Location:** Outside [[Firetown|Firetown’s]] Town Wall, [[ralar_region|Ralar Region]]
   * **Address:** 1 km from Main Gate
-  * **Surroundings:** Close to the [[federal_prison|Federal Prison]] (Gamme Age only), the [[federal_geothermal_power_plant|(Federal) Geothermal Power Plant]] and the [[firetown_tier-1_ern|Firetown Tier-1 Energy Redistribution Node]]
+  * **Surroundings:** Close to the [[federal_prison|Federal Prison]] ([[the_gamma_age|Gamma Age]]only), the [[federal_geothermal_power_plant|(Federal) Geothermal Power Plant]], the [[firetown_tier-1_ern|Firetown Tier-1 Energy Redistribution Node]], and the [[quantum_fusion_recalibration_station_of_firetown|Quantum Fusion Recalibration Station]].
+  * **Supply Line by Age:** Beta Age → [[Firetown Copper Plant Inc.|Firetown Copper Plant Inc.]] · Gamma Age → [[federal_copper_plant|Federal Copper Plant]]
-The (Federal) Copper Mine is the foundational extraction site that supplied raw copper to the [[federal_copper_plant|Federal Copper Plant]], shaping Firetown’s industrial rise and sustaining the [[federal_confederation|Federal Confederation]]’s resource needs. Discovered after a [[last_frontier_university|Last Frontier University]] expedition in December 2625 uncovered copper-rich veins in the [[ralar_region|Ralar Region]], the mine was conceived by the [[free_state_of_settlers|Free State of Settlers]] as a state-owned enterprise.
+The (Federal) Copper Mine is the foundational extraction site that supplied raw copper to Firetown’s metallurgical hub across both eras. Conceived by the [[free_state_of_settlers|Free State of Settlers]] as a state-owned enterprise after a [[last_frontier_university|Last Frontier University]] survey (Dec 2625), construction began in April 2626 under [[gaia_system|GAIA]] using [[manual_labor_bots|Manual Labor Bots]] and salvaged [[last_frontier|Last Frontier]] modules; the mine opened on 17 February 2627. In the [[beta_age|Beta Age]] it fed ore to [[Firetown Copper Plant Inc.|Firetown Copper Plant Inc.]]; after nationalization (2632), output was downscaled to treaty quotas and routed exclusively to the [[federal_copper_plant|Federal Copper Plant]] under [[federal_allotment_agency|Federal Allotment Agency]]/[[gaia_system|GAIA]] coordination.
-Construction began in April 2626, led by [[gaia_system|GAIA]], which provided blueprints and supervised the deployment of [[manual_labor_bots|Manual Labor Bots]] to execute most of the heavy work using salvaged [[last_frontier|Last Frontier]] parts and volcanic stone. The mine officially opened on 17 February 2627, forming, together with the (Federal) Geothermal Power Plant, the Firetown Tier-1 Energy Redistribution Node, and later the [[federal_copper_plant|Copper Plant]], the so-called Ralar Complex.
-In the [[beta_age|Beta Age]], the mine was largely automated with [[service_bots|Service Bots]]. In the [[the_gamma_age|Gamma Age]], following the [[peace_treaty|Peace Treaty]], it was nationalized, downscaled, and staffed primarily with [[the_humans|exohuman]] convicts under the jurisdiction of the [[federal_allotment_agency|Federal Allotment Agency]], which coordinates its output.
