====Mining Lasers====
Mining lasers are the primary weapons of.. miners. Go kill 'em rocks boys. They come in several flavors such as regular miners for most ships, and strip miners for mining barges. There are also ice miners and gas harvesters.

=====Mining Lasers=====
The mining lasers can be fitted on any ship with turret hardpoints and are used to mine ore. The regular mining lasers are capable of mining any type of ore except for Mercoxit which requires a deep core miner. The T2 modulated deep core miner can (and should) be fitted with ore-specific mining crystals to increase yield. Yield can be boosted further by fitting mining laser upgrades and gankling on a support ship (normally Orca or Rorqual)
=====Strip Miners=====
Strip miners are bulk ore extractors that can only be fitted on mining barges and exhumers.  They feature significantly longer cycle times but much more impressive extraction amounts, resulting in an improved yield over mining lasers in the majority of cases. The regular strip miners can mine any ore except for Mercoxit, while the deep core miner can mine all types of ore. T2 versions can (and should) be fitted with mining crystals to increase yield. Like mining lasers, they can benefit from mining laser upgrades and ganklinks.
=====Ice Harvesters=====
Ice Harvesters harvest ice and can only be fitted on mining barges and exhumers. Ice Harvester upgrades can be fitted to decrease ice harvester cycle time.
=====Gas Cloud Harvesters=====
Gas cloud harvesters harvest gas clouds. They can be fitted on any ship with turret hardpoints. One additional gas cloud harvester can be fitted for every skill level in Gas Cloud Harvesting. Unlike mining lasers/strip miners/ice harvesters gas cloud harvesters have no dedicated ship type and no yield-boosting modules.

These modules create a field around a heavy interdictor which prevent warping within a radius, but also slows the heavy interdictor and makes them incur more damage (via an increased signature radius).
