Andorian Mining Consortium
From Memory Alpha, the free Star Trek reference
In late 2153, while assisting the crew of the Enterprise in capturing a Xindi planet-killer prototype, Shran posed as a mining scout of the Andorian Mining Consortium, searching for Archerite. (ENT: "Proving Ground")
- It is unknown if this entity really exists or was just an invention of Shran.
[edit] Apocrypha
According to the computer game Star Trek: 25th Anniversary, the Andorian Mining Consortium, also known by the acronym AMC, was the third largest private corporation in the Federation by the 2260s. It was a relatively minor organization until it developed the Atlas computer, which transported ore out of the ground, sending high-grade material to processing plants and returning low-grade material back to its source. AMC considered itself to be an environmentally friendly company, but ecologists were pressuring to have its practices investigated.
