Here is a collection of the best locations I found when searching for my second base plus any that are shared with me in the comments.
Having a dedicated ore base is essential for reasonable progression in the tech tree, but there are plenty of ore spots on the map, so I judged my locations harshly: plenty of ore, easy to defend from raids, and bonus points if near a dungeon and close to a skill berry tree that is not already near a fast travel.
I have left off locations with extreme temperatures for now.

309, -36
