The Krolom-792 mining base is a Klingon mining station controlled by the House of Mi'Qogh, and represents one of their main economic assets. It is located near the Federation and Klingon border, and is used to mine metal out of asteroids. The miners were primarily made up of alien prisoners, similar to other Klingon mining facilities such as Rura Penthe. Occasional unrest and uprisings by these alien workers have resulted in periodic suppression efforts by the Klingon Defense Force.
