== General information ==
The ORE ships are specialised mining and salvaging ships. Whilst obviously not combat ships, they tend to be [[shield tanking|shield tanked]] and use drones for defense.

All basic ORE ships (the Venture, Primae and Noctis) have very low skill requirements, typically requiring less than a day of training to fly. The more advanced ORE ships' skill requirements depend on the type of ship. All T1 Mining Barges require the Mining Barge skill, which notably requires that you have Industry V trained. Exhumers, being their T2 cousins, require both the Mining Barge skill trained to level V as well as the Exhumers skill, which requires one to have Astrogeology trained to V.
All basic ORE ships (the Venture, Primae and Noctis) have very low skill requirements, typically requiring less than a day of training to fly. The more advanced ORE ships' skill requirements depend on the type of ship. All T1 Mining Barges require the {{sk|Mining Barge|mult=yes}} skill, which notably requires that you have {{sk|Industry|V}} trained. Exhumers, being their T2 cousins, require both {{sk|Mining Barge|V}}, {{sk|Astrogeology|V}}, and the {{sk|Exhumers|mult=yes}} skill.


The Orca on the other hand requires the Industrial Command Ship skill - prerequirements include quite some investment in leadership skills (Mining Foreman V) as well as the capability to fly the Noctis (ORE Industrial III) and some generic training (Spaceship Command V). The Rorqual, being a capital ship, has far higher skill requirements - in addition to Jump Drive skills necessitating Warp Drive Operation V, Navigation V and Science V, the Capital Industrial Ships skill also requires Capital Ships II (and thus, by extension, Advanced Spaceship Command V) as well as Industrial Reconfiguration I (and, by extension, Advanced Mass Production IV and Mass Production V).

The Venture is the first ORE ship almost any aspiring miner will fly. It only requires the [[sp|Mining Frigate]] skill, which can be injected by any newly created character, to operate, thus providing a viable mining ship with a low barrier of entry. Its two built-in warp core stabilizers also make the Venture a good ship for mining in hostile space.
The Venture is the first ORE ship almost any aspiring miner will fly. The ship and its required skillbook ({{sk|Mining Frigate|mult=yes}}) are given out for free by the Industry and Business [[Career Agents]]), thus providing a viable mining ship with a low barrier of entry.
The Venture also carries an unique bonus to Gas Harvesting, making it the ship of choice for such purposes.
 
While its mining yield is dwarfed by more advanced mining ships, it can nonetheless generate a reasonable income for a beginner miner, and its 5000&nbsp;m<sup>3</sup> ore hold means it doesn't have to return to a station to unload every few minutes. Its two built-in warp core stabilizers also make the Venture a good ship for mining in hostile space - plus, it aligns and warps much faster than the larger mining ships, allowing it to better escape  from danger.  
 
Lastly, the Venture is the only ship with a bonus to [[Gas Cloud Mining]], making it the ship of choice for such purposes.

==Mining Barge==
==Mining Barge==


Mining barges are the first level of ORE mining ships. There are three mining barges, each optimized for a different role.
The mining barges are the next step up from the Venture, with much higher mining yields, larger ore bays and/or a stronger tank. Also, in contrast to the Venture, the mining barges can fit strip miners (with much higher yield than normal mining modules) and [[Ice Mining|ice miners]]. There are three mining barges, each optimized for a different role: The Procurer has a strong tank, the Covetor a high mining yield, and the Retriever a large ore bay.
