One asteroid is about 200km across and made of Nickle and Iron.
It's enough Iron to cover current worldwide usage for over a million years.
And it's just sitting there being all smug and unmined.

They haven't said, they're doing a press thingy tomorrow.
Maybe they've got an idea, maybe they're just setting up a competition like the X prize, who knows?

Just use a giant "space magnet"
Problem solved

Magnetic raking is actually a good contender for asteroid mining. True fact.

whoa cool
and would a magnet pick up nickel or is that just for the iron?

No, they'd have to go BACK for the NICKEL
But thanks for reminding me

It would pick up the dust and gravel that contains any magnetic metals.
so it would pick up a whole bunch of stuff mixed together but it would have an above average metal content.

yeah but nickel is only weakly magnetic at room temperature
so they're gonna need a hella strong magnet

It's not sitting there as pure nickle, it'll be a mixture of a bunch of Ores clumped together
which may or may not be magnetic.
Also you're forgetting that this will be in extremly low gravity, which means you don't need a lot of pull to get them off the surface.
