You don't.
If you scan an erebite asteroid you will see some veins have a red exclamation mark on them. Theses are unstable.
Power tools will cause unstable erebite veins to explode. But you can still gather the ore afterward. Unless you cause a chain reaction, where subsequent explosions will detonate the dropped ore. But if you are quick and a bit reckless you can attempt to grab the dropped ore between explosions. I hope you are wearing an indus suit.
Custom made tools don't cause unstable veins to explode, but also don't mine them. So you can clear an erebite asteroid with a custom tool and then work at the unstable veins with a power tool.
