¶ Relative Resource Abundances Per Spectral Type
Each spectral type had a unique set of raw materials which could help produce the various products to support life in the belt. The composition of each spectral type has average abundances of the various available resources.
Resource abundances are not static. When an asteroid is scanned there is randomness involved, which will set the real abundance of each material within a given range. The below are averaged over the 250,000 asteroids.
