*'''Hauler''': The job of the hauler is to collect the ore as it is mined and to transport it safely to the station. This means the miners do not have to keep returning to the station to drop off their ore, and they can focus their time on maximising their yield instead.

*'''~~Orca~~''': ~~An Orca~~ is a ~~special ship that has a few features~~ that ~~makes it ideally suited~~ to ~~support mining fleets, particularly by providing mining boosts~~.

*'''Booster''': The job of the booster is to provide mining boosts which increase the yield of miners and to use a tractor beam to collect widely dispersed jet cans full of ore. This means that haulers do not need to slow boat around the field. Boosters fly Orcas and Porpoises.

*'''Picket / Scout''': EVE University is almost always at war and sometimes it is necessary that there be someone who is able to watch gates to see war targets before they get close to the system the mining fleet is in. The job of picket is an important early warning system to protect the rest of the fleet and allow them to get out of the belt and in station before a war target has time to get to them.
