N7: Abandoned Mine

You are invited to land on the local planet, near the anomaly site, and send a squad to investigate the strange readings you have got from the abandoned mine.

Acquisition
While scanning the planet Aequitas (third planet of the Fortis system, Minos Wasteland), you will detect an anomaly which, once probed, reveals itself to be an abandoned mine.

Walkthrough
Upon landing, move to the right of the shuttle and you'll find a container with 2250 credits.

As you enter the mine, your squad will soon confront a few husks. On a bench is a datapad stating "If you're reading this... get the hell outta this place! Now!". To the right of this is a container with Refined Iridium. Follow the path to the left; you will encounter 4 husks, an abomination, and more Refined Iridium. Continue along the path and take out the enemies, while finding more Refined Iridium and a locker with 1050 credits at the top of the ramp. Following the path you'll find more Refined Iridium and then will enter a room containing more husks, an abomination, Mine Logs, and Medi-gel. At this point the path forks, both ways lead to the same large room, This room contains husks that respawning several dozen times, some Power Cells, some Medi-gel, and a locker with 450 credits. In the room with the Reaper device are two bombs, take them out from a distance to end the mission.

Note: If you destroy the bombs while standing next to them, the game glitches and you lose all your experience, resources, and credits.

 Note:  The last locker before the device is tricky to get with the husks coming at you. However if you kill enough husks they will eventually stop spawning. Also, traveling through the tunnels to the main room is what triggers the husks. The game auto-saves before you destroy the bombs, and if you end the mission then reload the auto-save, you can bypass the locker without interruption, since the husks will not have been triggered.
