The primary star is a variable star and the planet is a ~1000K with glass rain and winds calculated at 9,700 km/h, this doesn't strike me as all as a place to live. Maybe there is a group or individual out there desperate enough to make a go of it.
Compared to the environment the SunMiners inhabit, this is a relatively clement location. Plenty of sunlight for power, and a range of gases including silicate vapour that could be harvested using sufficiently robust equipment. If there is carbon present that could be harvested it could be used to create permanent structures in orbit.
