The DLC-13 mining droid, also known as the Mustafar panning droid, droid lava collector or DLC-13 panning droid, was a mining droid[4] used to extract valuable ores from inhospitable environments, like Mustafar and the Belgaroth asteroid field.[2] The droids were made from heat-resistant carbonite.[4]
