We mine the asteroids no one else will touch. Independent. Surgical. Profitable. Since 2089.
VIEW TARGETS →Asteroid Belters is a privately held extraction outfit operating in the main belt and among near-Earth asteroids. We were founded on a single thesis: that the resources humanity needs for the next century are not underground — they are overhead.
We run lean. Four vessels, thirty-one engineers, no shareholders demanding this quarter's margin. That lets us take prospects the majors ignore: low-grade volatiles, structurally complex rubble piles, long-tail metallic bodies. We make them pay.
Every gram we return to LEO is weighed, assayed, and contracted before it touches a refinery dock. No speculation. No fluff. Just rock, processed.
Current active and provisional extraction prospects. All telemetry pulled from our orbital survey array.
M-TYPE · METALLIC
| Mean diam. | 2.4 km |
| Albedo | 0.21 |
| Est. Ni/Fe mass | 1.1 × 1012 kg |
| Δv from LEO | 5.8 km/s |
| Phase | Bulk extraction |
Our flagship target. High metallic yield, slow rotation. Industrial-grade iron and nickel for in-situ construction.
C-TYPE · CARBONACEOUS
| Mean diam. | 1.6 km |
| Albedo | 0.06 |
| Water content | ~12 % |
| Δv from LEO | 4.3 km/s |
| Phase | Survey & site sel. |
Volatiles play. H2O, CO2, and light hydrocarbons for propellant depot feedstock.
B-TYPE · RUBBLE PILE
| Mean diam. | 0.49 km |
| Albedo | 0.045 |
| Bulk density | 1.19 g/cm³ |
| Δv from LEO | 3.9 km/s |
| Phase | Sample retrieval |
Lowest Δv in our catalog. Tight compositional data, highly porous. Under joint study with three partner labs.
