I'm pretty sure that where resources are physically located isn't tracked. Taking a planet with storage facilities will only increase your capacity, not give you any "plunder". The previous owner of the planet will lose resources, though, but only if you've knocked his capacity below what he had in storage.

Cap'n Q

The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the
human mind to correlate all of its contents. We live on a placid
island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was
not meant that we should go far. -- HP Lovecraft, "The Call of Cthulhu"
