Bonanza

Bonanza is an inhabited planet located in the Aegis Aquila star system, at coordinates 4.45N 4.47W.

A frigid, icy rock, inhospitable and virtually featureless, Bonanza was an important planet due to its considerable sub-surface gold and diamond deposits. With a large population of off-world miners living under pressurized domes, Bonanza steadily increased in value since its discovery. Geologists estimated that the gold and diamond reserves would not be depleted for at least another century. Starfleet maintained a small orbital defense installation supporting large monitors and numerous corvettes to guard the system from unauthorized intrusion.
