Land and resource extraction are key pillars of the Star Atlas economy. To support this system, players can utilize Claim Stakes, NFT-based structures that allow users to claim territory and mine valuable materials across the universe.
What is a Claim Stake?
A Claim Stake is an NFT structure used to claim a portion of land in the Star Atlas metaverse. These lands are rich in raw materials, such as ore, minerals, and gases—that are vital for crafting, trading, and building the economy.
Claim Stakes come in five tiers, with Tier 5 offering the deepest and widest excavation potential. The higher the tier, the greater the resource production capacity

Structures Used in Mining
To mine from a claimed area, players will need to deploy additional structures. Here's how the system is expected to work:
Power Plant
The foundation of your mining operation. This energizes your Mining Drill and other structures, enabling raw resource extraction.
Mining Drill
Once powered by a Power Plant, the Mining Drill begins automated material extraction. Auto-sleds then collect the resources for transport.
Space Station
Building a Space Station above your Mining Station allows for efficient storage, processing, and preparation of raw materials for sale or crafting.
Claim Stakes in Faction Claim (Passive Rewards)
In addition to future active mining, Claim Stakes can already be enlisted in Faction Claim to generate passive income.
Once enlisted, Claim Stakes will produce R4 resources:
Fuel
Food
Toolkits
Ammunition
The quantity of R4 produced depends on the tier of the Claim Stake you enlist
