Gold & Platinum very very rare?

    Hello All

    I've done some reading and some searching and what I've read indicates that while rare, I should occasionally run into gold or platinum ore.

    The problem is, I haven't. I have around 60 hours into my game. I've dug to the core of 3 Harmless/Mostly Harmless planets, 2 Moderate planets, and 2 risky planets. The only gold I have found was in chests in a large underground avian tomb. I have never mined a single piece of gold ore. I've spent close to 10 hours looking for Gold and Platinum and I haven't seen a single gold platinum ore.

    Am I just very very unlucky, or am I missing something?

    Thanks for any advice :)

    It's not luck. Gold and Platinum ore only appear on T5-6 planets now, the Dangerous and Extreme ones. However, you can still occasionally get them on lower tier planets as chest drops and such.
