The low-slot Mining Laser Upgrade and Ice Harvester Upgrade modules increase the yield (amount mined per minute) of asteroid and ice miners, respectively (there is no equivalent module for gas miners). The only rigs which increases mining yield are the [[Fitting_Modules_and_Rigs_Guide#Drone|Mining Augmentor]] (which increases the yield of [[Drones#Mining Drones|mining drones]]) and the Mercoxit Mining Crystal Optimization (which increases yield for mining Mercoxit only). Lastly, the only mid-slot module dedicated to mining is the survey scanner (which shows how much ore/ice is available in nearby asteroids).  
The low-slot Mining Laser Upgrade and Ice Harvester Upgrade modules increase the yield (amount mined per minute) of asteroid and ice miners, respectively (there is no equivalent module for gas miners). As for rigs, they can be used to increase the yield of ice and Mercoxit mining, as well as mining drones. Lastly, the only mid-slot module dedicated to mining is the survey scanner (which shows how much ore/ice is available in nearby asteroids).  


All the mining ships are shield tanked, and therefore most of their mid-slots and rigs, some of their low-slots, are dedicated to mounting a stronger tank. For details on fitting shield-tanked ships see [[shield tanking]]; depending on whether you will be flying to more dangerous areas of space (and how risk-averse you are), you will dedicate more or fewer slots to your tank.

Even the basic strip miner is a massive upgrade over mining lasers (the Strip Miner I mines almost five times as much as a Miner I). The tech 2 strip miner has a lower base yield than its tech 1 counterpart, but can fit mining crystals, which will give it up to 15% more yield (with tech 2 mining crystals). The Modulated Deep Core Strip Miner II is the only strip miner capable of mining Mercoxit, and the ORE Strip Miner is very rare, expensive, and not worth using.
