Site Novem was established inside a large crater at the base of a mountain. Its main feature, a giant mining laser, which had been modified by the Harbinger, was mounted atop a large central control structure accessible via a [[gravity lift]]. Armories, troop barracks, and other smaller support buildings surrounded this central structure. The laser itself required two external power regulators to prevent overheating. Each power regulator was itself regulated by a pair of cooling pylons. Though the Banished primarily used the mining laser to pierce the Halo's surface, they also utilized other excavation machines at Site Novem.
