Starfield - Niira Resource Overview

Niira is a nearby planet you can farm Nickel (Ni) for within the Narion System. To look for Nickel-rich areas, head over to the planet details and select Show Resources.

Look for Nickel-rich areas (signified by the brown color) around the planet and select a landing point within them.

Feel free to also look around other planets, since Nickel can be found also in other nearby star systems like Sol System.
