BXR Mining Corporation

The BXR Mining Corporation is a resource extraction megacorporation within the Human Sphere.

History
The BXR Mining Corporation was founded by three separate private entities merging in 2372; the Earth based BORS Inc, the Mars based Xion Company, and the Reach Development Company. The headquarters and assets of each entity were maintained, however overall administration was concentrated in the Jovian Moons in order to better assert the company's lucrative and prestigious mining claims in the outer Sol colonies.

BXR would be a driver of colonization of several planets including Norton's Crossing and Green Hills. Though these wouldn't be without controversy; including violent security confrontations with competitors on the former and squalid living conditions on the latter.

With the fall of Reach in 2552 a mass industrial administration exodus from Sol began as fears of Covenant invasion started to swirl. In the midst of this, the headquarters of BXR would move to Sunburn. This move was marketed as "BXR moving to be closer to the frontier".

Services
BXR mines and delivers raw minerals and metals to manufacturers like Misriah Armory and SinoViet Heavy Machinery. During and after the Human-Covenant War, BXR also includes 'deglassing' as one of it's core services. However, the ethics of this process as well as whether they can even recover these planets has been called into question.
