'''Mining''' is the activity of extracting ore from [[Asteroids and ore|asteroids]], though it is also used to describe [[ice harvesting]] and more rarely, [[gas cloud harvesting]]. Once extracted, ore can then be [[Refining|refined]] into minerals. These refined substances are used in the production and maintenance of all player-created items and structures in EVE, such as ships and modules. It is one of the few professions immediately available to beginning players and most EVE industrialists started their careers by mining. Mining is considered a very economically safe profession, as minerals are always in demand. Mining requires specialized modules or drones, and [[ORE Basic Ship and Skill Overview|specialized mining ships]] also exist. | '''Mining''' is the activity of extracting ore from [[Asteroids and ore|asteroids]], though it is also used to describe [[ice harvesting]] and more rarely, [[gas cloud harvesting]].
