This is a Platinum mining map for Lalande 34968 AB 8, drop into the Resource Extraction Site at the Platinum Hotspot.
As this is a Haz Res, you should expect to be attacked and you need to be capable of managing multiple attackers.
All asteroids in the map are roughly 14-20km from the centre of the Haz Res, this reduces the number of hostiles you need to contend with while still getting the benefit. The benefit is you get a significant boost to yield.
Other recommendations:
Fighter Pilot ranked at least Deadly.
Point Defence near the cargo hatch, they will spam hatch breaker limpets.
A scanner that can go to 9km.

After dropping in, orientate yourself so that it matches the first image below. You should be about 20km out of the Haz Res marker, directly facing the planet. The marker for the planet should overlap the hotspot marker when aligned. Once aligned, target the Haz Res marker and keep it targeted. Each picture that follows will show an asteroid that has a high yield of Platinum. Note that each asteroid still needs to be prospected to get full yield.

Once mined, align toward the Haz Res marker at the base of the asteroid you just mined with the bottom of the asteroid at the centre and top of your display. The next asteroid is always relative to this position. I’ve tried to keep either the Haz Res marker or the planet in the view as a point of reference, but it was not possible in all images and you can use the small radar showing the relative position as a guide. Note that all pictures are taken on the same plane within the asteroid belt. I recommend you avoid rolling your ship while moving through the map, but if you get disoriented, the galactic core will be mostly above you.
