==Mining Barges==

Mining barges are the first level of ORE mining ships, and follow a natural progression from Procurer to Covetor. Mining Barges require various levels of {{sk|Science|Astrogeology}} and {{sk|Spaceship Command|Mining Barge}} to pilot.

Mining barges are the first level of ORE mining ships, and follow a natural progression from Procurer to Covetor. Mining Barges require various levels of {{sk|Science|Astrogeology}} and {{sk|Spaceship Command|Mining Barge}} to pilot. The fits given will try to fit Mining Upgrades where possible; you can replace these with Expanded Cargoholds depending on preference. Also, Warrior drones will be used, since Aldrat's local rats are Angels. You will probably want to swap these for Hobgoblins in other regions.

===Procurer===

{{Infobox Ship Horizontal

Line 29:

'''Role Bonus:''' Able to equip Strip Miner and Ice Harvester turrets.

|info=The Procurer is the smallest and cheapest of the mining barges, and is often skipped in favour of the Retriever when training though the barges, due to the Retriever's relatively low additional training time and the Procurer's low advantage over a mining cruiser. For those who love the strip miner's 3min cycles, aren't training for mining cruisers, or just like how damn cute it looks, though, the Procurer can be a worthy ship to fly.

|info=The Retriever is most player's first Mining Barge, giving a much bigger advantage over non-barges than the Procurer. It also has a tank comparable to a mining cruiser, though some average drone skills will be required to successfully fend off belt rats rather than warping out.
