Added ore information for some moon locations

MirrorIrorriM: Added several region ore counts. May need to move to the article for venus, and have the regions on the map image highlighted, as areas other than starting areas are not particularly useful if you only have their name.

Added several region ore counts. May need to move to the article for venus, and have the regions on the map image highlighted, as areas other than starting areas are not particularly useful if you only have their name.

MirrorIrorriM: Added table for region specific ore distribution, and seperated out the older table from before the terrain update. I only have data for Dusk Valley on Venus currently (I'm not cool enough to know how to pull game files, but I have a tablet and a dream).

-Most locations have the same ore-distribution table, Venus and Vulcan being the exceptions.
+Since update 0.2.5903.26007 (terrain update), deep ore generation is now tied to regions, with each region yielding a set ratio of ores, some regions containing only a single ore type for deep mining, with others containing two or three. The deep mining yield of a region can be detected using the [[Cartridge|Deep ore scanner tablet cartridge]] or using the [[Motherboard (Map)]] and a [[Rocket Deep Scanner Head]].
 The percentages may not add up to exactly 100% due to rounding, and your numbers may be slightly different due to the random number generator that selects what ore comes out of a Dirty Ore when cleaned.
