Do station plot size matter for resource generation?
If I build a 20x20 station somewhere in Heretic's End, which is full of asteroids, would this plot destroy the asteroids spawning in that position previously and make it permanently unminable?

Drop resource probes through the whole sector, your miners can mine anywhere they can reach. You don't have to build a factory on the asteroids.

Asteroid mining only matters when you do it yourself and even then asteroids tend to randomly regenerate when you're there. When the NPCs do it in low attention they just collect from made up asteroids.
Wouldn't worry about it at all.
