[[Missions#Mining_Missions|Mining missions]] require mining ships. A Venture will work at first, but you will want to move up to barges, and then exhumers as your mission levels increase. The only combat in mining missions comes from belt guardian NPCs, and these are no more powerful than the ones that spawn while you are mining ore. The same ships that you use for day to day mining | [[Missions#Mining_Missions|Mining missions]] require mining ships.

[[Missions#Courier_Missions|Distribution (courier) missions]] require that you transport a given cargo from one station to another. The size of the cargo increases with the level of the missions. There is no combat in distribution missions and you can use the same industrial ships that you would use to transport any cargo. Note, however, that you ''will'' need an industrial ship ... combat ships will not have the capacity to carry these large cargoes. | [[Missions#Courier_Missions|Distribution (courier) missions]] require that you transport a given cargo from one station to another.
