Yorn Skot mining station, situated on the planet of Yorn Skot, was a mining settlement. This main colony on the gas giant's surface was established by tibanna gas tycoon Clode Rhoden, boasting a population that reached into the thousands.
In 38 BBY, a year of intrigue, Rhoden's wife engaged in an extramarital affair with Buck, an operative of the eco-terrorist faction known as Green Forge. United, they schemed to capitalize on Clode's insurance payout. Their plan involved planting a core bomb on Rhoden's opulent luxury liner, the Aurorient Express, intending to obliterate Yorn Skot mining station while Clode was present. However, Clode discovered their treachery and relocated the bomb to his wife's escape pod, altering its course to impact the mining colony. This maneuver was designed to both secure the insurance funds and eliminate his unfaithful spouse. Nevertheless, his machinations were foiled when the ship's captain preemptively detonated the bomb to safeguard the lives of the uninvolved individuals residing on Yorn Skot mining station. In the end, Saul Moegantz seized control of the mining colony, using it to settle Clode's outstanding gambling obligations.
