With the overwhelming success and popularity of the Excavator mining ships, Hurles Corporation has developed the Excavator Mark II. Don't let the new mark confuse you - the Mark II is an entirely new design. Weighing in much more heavily than the Mark I, it is improved in very single way; it includes multiple extractors, multiple refineries, assembly and 3D printing capability, and a substantial cargohold.

Under the hood, the ship is fully solar powered, and has emergency power generators that provide supplementary power for high performance situations. It also includes shields, holotable, a ship construction interlace, long range teleportation, cargo teleporters, powerful sensors, and a single turret. Structurally, special quick-access chutes connect the cargoholds to the refineries, dramatically reducing the time needed to bring cargo from the cargohold to the refineries.

For all-in-one mining solutions, the Excavator Mark II is second to none in medium-scale mining operations.

With the release of the Excavator Mark II, a large capability gap was filled in the resource industry. However, some mining corporations seeked more specialized vessels. Thus, by revamping the Excavator Mark II's highly adaptable chassis, the Miner Mark I, Refinery Mark I, Transporter Mark I, Assembler Mark I, and the Recoverator Mark I were born. With the ship and its variants, the base Excavator Mark II, and its numerous variants, are the undisputed royalty of resource extraction, processing, equipment construction, transportation, and operations.
