Factional missions are given by the Kami and Karavan representatives in the ranger camp; the Kami Guide, and the Karavan Communications Officer (wearing black and yellow lycra). The Kami can be found in the Kami Enclave, behind Guilan Guiter; and the Karavan in the Karavan Embassy, surrounded by metal and laser fencing.
Later on, on the mainland, if you do missions for the Kami or Karavan it will be in order to raise your fame with that faction, and eventually pledge allegiance to one or the other of them. On Silan, it really doesn't matter which missions you do, or whether you do any of them at all.
When taking a mission, make sure to read what the mission giver says! You can miss important information otherwise, and there is no way of having the information repeated.

If you choose to dig the residue, you must use fine prospecting, and dig at q30. However, Average Residue is extremely hard to find, so it will probably be easier to gather the residue by killing animals.
NOTE: Do not use 'Fine' prospecting, remove the 'Find Better Materials' stanza from your action - this always returns You have detected raw materials, but of a different class than specified in your Prospecting action
