What to know
SAM is alien matter, refined into Reanimated SAM for late-game alien technology.
Place a Miner on a node. Mk.1 gives 60 per minute on a normal node, Mk.3 gives 240, and impure and pure nodes give half and double that.
By map quarter: 4 northwest, 5 northeast, 4 southwest and 6 southeast.
