Here's an idea I had about making a neutron star.  If you go into the star, you can get infinite Neutronium, but you damage the freighter pretty quickly.  Fortunately, the star will expel Neutron Nebulae every so often.  It contains a limited resource, but it doesn't cause as much damage to the freighter.  It takes a specially designed freighter to mine from this.  The star itself is going to be quite big, but can eject Neutron Nebulae for quite the distance.

The only problem I can see with this is there not being enough places for a nebula to spawn for it to appear to be random.  There's also the problem of the nebula spawning on a station and destroying that station.  Or spawning right on top of a fleet of ships and wiping out at least half of the fleet.  How would I prevent that?

Can't answer your question but since you seem to be really interested in neutronium here's a fun little article about it: What would a teaspoonful of neutron star do to you?

Okay, forget the star, we'd need to replicate the material.  Shouldn't be too hard and it should be quite effective as a weapon.  Obviously a pure Neutronium hull is out of the question.
