Ice Belt (empire space)

Anomaly · 6h respawnHigh SecurityLow Security

Ice spawns as anomalies in fixed SYSTEMS (1–3 belts each) but random locations, despawning when mined out and respawning ~6 hours later. Faction ices (Clear Icicle, Glacial Mass, Blue Ice, White Glaze) refine to each empire's jump-fuel isotopes and spawn only in that empire's space; standard ices (Glare Crust, Dark Glitter, Gelidus, Krystallos) carry Heavy Water, Liquid Ozone and Strontium and appear from lowsec down. Belt rats respawn roughly every 20 minutes.
