After finding out that he was in the Avatar universe, things became simple.
Duncan had temporarily taken command. He couldn't exactly be said to be calling the shots with swagger; at most, he was keeping the whole situation under control.
After the Helicarrier had left the Hallelujah Mountains, it escaped the electromagnetic vortex's influence. There was no rush to make contact with the natives, or for the people of Earth to travel thousands of miles to a resource-rich planet just to mine its minerals.
He hadn't thought much of it before, but once he recalled the plot of Avatar, Duncan found himself deep in thought.
A planet with life, and confirmed to be capable of supporting carbon-based life.
Its very existence was a treasure trove. The animals and plants on Pandora, along with all sorts of elements that might not exist on Earth, were all riches waiting to be developed.
Humans needed only a breathing mask to survive on Pandora. Compared with the investment and potential returns, building colonies and research bases on the planet was a better choice.

The superconducting ore was pretty good, too. The ore found across the entire planet of Pandora could raise Umbrella Corporation's technological capabilities by a whole level.
With large-scale mining, many technologies could make breakthroughs.
For example: nuclear fusion, electromagnetic rail technology, quantum computers, microcomputers, and magnetic levitation devices.
Superconducting ore had countless uses. Once they mastered nuclear fusion, long-term space travel would no longer be a problem.
The energy produced by nuclear fusion was better than that of the Arc Reactor: more stable and simpler, and the materials needed were easier to obtain.
The large quantities of helium-3 on the Moon could also be used as nuclear fusion fuel. The reserves on
