I get this crash while trying to load an old save-game.

 466.138 Error AppManagerStates.cpp:1663: The mod Even Distribution (2.0.2) caused a non-recoverable error.

The save-game is an old one from before 2.0 release (2020-11-19).

Did this save have asteroid mining active previously?

No, I was not using this mod at that time.

Ok so what looks to be happening is even distribution is marking a technology as researched during it's on_configuration_changed event which fires an on_research_finished event before AM has had a chance to setup the storage tables it uses for that. New version checks that the tables are initialized which should fix it.
