Independent · Founded 2031 · Ops in LEO & NEO

Heavy industry, off-world.

We are a small, independent asteroid mining company surveying, securing, and extracting platinum-group metals, rare earths, and water ice from near-Earth asteroids. No subsidies. No flags. Just steel and telemetry.

About

An industrial company, not a press release.

Asteroid Belters was founded by a crew of planetary scientists, ex-rail engineers, and a propulsion technician who thought the asteroid mining industry had been talking for ten years and shipbuilding for none of them. We build slow, fly often, and process what we bring back on land under full audit.

Our current work concentrates on M-type and C-type asteroids in low-inclination near-Earth orbits — bodies with high metal fractions, low delta-v, and spectra boring enough to keep regulators happy. We sell forward contracts on recovered mass, not hype on a roadmap.

Our Targets

Three bodies under active survey.

Each target is selected for delta-v, spectral signature, and rotational stability. We publish current phase and telemetry cadence in good faith; numbers below are last-received values and may lag the ground by hours.
