'''Mining barges''' are the next step up from the [[~~Venture~~]], with much higher mining yields, larger mining holds and/or a stronger tank. Also, in contrast to the Venture, the mining barges can fit strip miners (with much higher yield than normal mining modules) and [[Ice Harvesting|ice miners]]. There are three mining barges, each optimized for a different role: The Procurer has a strong tank, the Covetor a high mining yield, and the Retriever a large mining hold.

{{expansion past|The Procurer used to only have 1 high slot, while the Coveter would have 3. The Retriever still held 2 high slots. This was changed during the September 13th update in 2016, which overhauled the mining barges/exhumers.}}
