    I think that ores and crystals should spawn in veins and not single blocks.

    In the 1st August I discovered a purple planet where this is true.

    Is it not already changed?

    Unless you always salvage by hand, I don't really see the problem here.

    What i think that need to be done, is more visible difference sized veins of ore and crystal, some random asteroid should have lots of ores and others almost nothing. Is true that planets have way more rocks with ore/crystal than the drifting rocks in space.

    But planets have one downside: it is almost a 50% chance that a planet contains only one type of resource (2 types of ore/two types of shards), resulting in two planets being needed.

    Do they share the same type over multiple segments?

    If we would be realistic: a planet should have all but a few.

    I haven't checked, but I think that they do. That is actually worth checking out, thanks for the idea.

    2 types PER PLATE, also, veins should be occuring on planets and in asteroids, further, planets will eventually change over to the new rock types, as well as adopting a new ground cover system (like MC grass) the changes are ongoing.
