@Shadow: Or SDC's main mining operations are in Atlas, but they do not let go of the oportunities to mine in the other kingdoms.

I remember something similar. Since here in my country there was a fucking ton of Oil, multiple Oil companies from the US looked for ways to work said Oil. Alternatively, the actual mining is done by smaller companies to which the SDC has some contract with.
