The '''''Monarch'' type''' mining ships are part of the [[Colonial Auxiliary Fleet]], working in tandem with [[Refinery ship]]s to provide Battlestar Groups at sea with fresh fuel ([[Blood and Chrome]]). | |||
These ships are able to directly land on the surface of a moon or asteroid for mining operations, with the mining equipment located in the numerous saucers that compose the hull. After the raw materials are collected, they are transferred to a refinery ship for refining and distribution to the fleet. | |||
Over 40 years later, this type is still utilized by the Colonial Fleet, where several, including ''[[Monarch]]'', and ''[[Majahual]]'', escape with ''[[Galactica (RDM)|Galactica]]'' following the destruction of the Colonies ("[[Miniseries]]"). | |||
