A frigid icy rock, inhospitable and virtually featureless, Bonanza is an important planet due to the planet's considerable sub surface gold and diamond deposits. With a large population of offworld miners living under pressurized domes, Bonanza has steadily increased in value since its discovery two decades ago. Geologists estimate that the gold and diamond reserves will not be depleted for at least another century. Starfleet maintains a small orbital defense installation supporting large monitors and numerous corvettes to guard the system from unauthorized intrusion.
