Short of Caslon as mining station is full of other gases

Short of Caslon as mining station is full of other gases.

Despite the minimum level being zero for this other gas the mining station is 99% full of it, consequently i am suffering sever fuel shortages.

I assume that whats happening is that as i use a lot of fuel at the station (and very little of the other resource) and it gradually just fills up with other gases until there is no room left for the Caslon.

Is there any way of :
1) Dumping resources i don't need
2) Getting haulers to take it away
3) Stopping mining the non Caslon resource altogether

Thanks

The cargo space is shared between the mined resources and the stocks are guaranteed for each.
Caslon should be mined continuously. What percentages is the planet showing?
1) Dumping resources i don't need
Not doable, they will just rise to the maximum guaranteed storage and stop there.
2) Getting haulers to take it away
Only if you are Teekan; you can control their private sector.
For other races: Refueling ships maybe, I never tried.
Your military ships will still refuel at that mining station.
3) Stopping mining the non Caslon resource altogether
Not doable currently.
