This guide describes what to expect in the typical mining operation run by Eve University mining fleet commanders, and how to fit in smoothly.
 
 
 
This is a companion guide to [[Running a Mining Op]].
 
 
 
= Types of Mining Ops =
 
 
 
There are several kinds of mining operations. However, most Uni ops - scheduled or pick up - are one of these types:
 
 
 
* ''Shared Can'': This is a JetCan mining operation where the miners place their proceeds into a JetCan (which was jettisoned by someone and named so it will last two hours), and a hauler regularly takes the ore out of the can and, when full, brings it to an in-system station for later processing.
 
 
 
* ''Orca'': In this operation, the miners place their ore directly into an Orca's designated Corporation Hangar (see [[#How to Use an Orca]] below). If there is no additional hauler (or another Orca), then while the Orca is dropping the ore off at a station, a JetCan will be used to hold the ore until the Orca returns.
 
 
 
* ''Boost only'': This is not really a "mining operation" and hence won't be covered in this guide. This is a fleet you can join to get "boosts" from the fleet commander while in the same system. This is typically an Orca pilot with a few spare fleet spots that he lets others use. There is no shared ore or profit.
 
 
 
The mining operation fleet commander will inform the fleet members what sort of operation is being run and, hence, how the miners should handle their ore.
 
 
 
(More details, which are not particularly understandable to newer players, can be found at the slightly out of date [[Cooperative Mining Guide]].)
 
 
 
= Finding a Mining Op =
 
 
 
* Look in Fleet Finder: Check the "Fleets" button in the NeoCom, then look at the "Fleet Finder" tab. From there, select "My Corporation" or "My Alliance" and search for fleets.
 
 
 
* Ask in the "Industry.E-UNI" chat channel if there is a mining op. Alternatively (or in addition), you can also ask in the "Loo Operations" chat channel. Finally, you can ask in the "Chat.E-UNI" channel. Additionally, check the same channels in TeamSpeak.
 
 
 
* You can also start your own fleet! See [[Running a Mining op]].
