I know Alien itself neglects to mention what kind of mineral ore they are hauling, but is it mentioned in the novelization or elsewhere? It is hard to imagine even 20 million tons of pure gold (which would depress the price of gold severely) would pay for such a mission, although perhaps the idea...

As the title suggests, I've been searching for an anime I wanted to watch when I was in elementary. I remember it was on Toonami.
