The [[Orca]] on the other hand requires the {{sk|Industrial Command Ships|mult=yes}} skill - prerequisites include quite some investment in leadership skills ({{sk|Mining Foreman|V}}) as well as the capability to fly the [[Noctis]] ({{sk|ORE Industrial|III}}) and some generic training ({{sk|Spaceship Command|V}}).

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 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. | 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 m<sup>3</sup> ore hold means it doesn't have to return to a station to unload every few minutes.

==Mining | ==Mining barge== | ||
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. | The mining barges are the next step up from the Venture, with much higher mining yields, larger ore bays and/or a stronger tank.

The Bowhead is the ORE freighter but unlike the other racial freighters it has a small cargo hold and a very large Ship Maintenance Bay, similar to the Orca and Rorqual. Unlike other freighters it has rigs and midslots, not just lowslots. | |||

Gas cloud miners are used to mine [[Gas Cloud Mining|gas clouds]], and can only be fit to ships with turret slots (which means they cannot be fitted to mining barges or exhumers). For each level of the {{sk|Gas Cloud Harvesting}} skill you can fit one additional gas cloud harvester (up to a total of 5 at skill level V); all gas cloud miners have a range of 1.5 km (the shortest of any of the mining modules by quite a margin). Note that the table below lists yield per minute (to make it easier to compare modules), while most in-game sources will list yield per cycle. | |||
