===~~Mining~~===

===Rock Chewers===

~~Ore~~ sites in wormholes have lots of very large asteroids of every type, which makes them a desirable place to mine.

Gravimetric sites in wormholes have lots of very large asteroids of every type, which makes them a desirable place to mine.

*'''Note:''' ~~Ore sites now appear as cosmic anomalies and do not require scanning~~

*'''Note:''' probes are required to hunt down a mining operation

====~~Recommended Ships~~====

====Opposition====

*Ships: [[Venture]], [[Barge#Mining_Barges|Mining Barge]] or [[Barge#Exhumers|Exhumer]], [[Orca]] if you're lucky.

*Fit: Shield tank with mining ~~setup~~

*Fit: Shield tank with mining stuff

====Profitability====

'''~~Varies~~:''' - ~~A small mining gang could profit well~~ in ~~lower class wormholes but at~~ a ~~much higher risk of hostile activity~~.

'''Low:''' - T2 strip miners are kinda nice, but the ore won't fit in a combat ship's hold.

====How to Hunt====

In w-space, gravimetric sites are the only place where rocks are found, and need to be probed down.

====Risk====

*Drones, should be able to tank a flight of light or medium drones depending on the target

*The [[Procurer|Procurer]] and the [[Skiff|Skiff]] can have some very nice tank

*~~Ore sites~~ have ~~Sleeper spawns that must be cleared to mine safely~~

*They may have friends nearby
