Summary
Unipolar magnet vein is a source of Unipolar Magnets, one of the rarest ores found throughout the galaxy. These veins are only found on planets around Neutron Stars and Black Holes. Full use of the mined ore requires setting up an Interstellar Logistics Station network.

Magnets appear in patches of 14-17 veins. For any patch there's a 40% chance of getting 15 veins, and a 20% chance of getting 14, 16, or 17 veins. The average number of veins in a patch is 15.4.
The number of patches on a planet is a random integer ranging from 1 to 12. There will always be exactly 2 stars which have unipolar magnets. Each will each exactly one planet, so the total number of patches ranges from 2 to 24.
The probability of each number of patches on one planet is shown in the following table. The expected number of patches on a planet is 2.841.
