On Mars
Does taking a Blueprint cost a Mineral or give me an upgrade?
The rulebook's "Orbital Station Main Actions" section lists what taking a Blueprint does and costs.

No. Taking a Blueprint costs no Mineral; you gain the resource or crystal shown and place one of your Advanced Building markers on it. The upgrade comes later with an Upgrade action, which costs one Mineral. A Blueprint's Executive action is not available until it is built.
