The

comes
hot
on
the
heels
of
the
2012
of
two
private
asteroid

mining
firms
.

years

Golden

will
be
offering
trips
to
the

,
including
to
potential
lunar
miners
.
Within

,
these
firms
may
be
meeting
demands
for
precious
metals
,
such
as
platinum
and

,
and
the

elements
vital
for
personal

,
such
