The tech 2 deep core miner can be fitted with mining crystals to increase its yield, and is also much more forgiving in terms of fitting (the tech 1 deep core miner takes so much CPU that it's nearly impossible to fit more than 1 on a [[Venture]]). | The tech 2 deep core miner can be fitted with mining crystals to increase its yield, and is also much more forgiving in terms of fitting (the tech 1 deep core miner takes so much CPU that it's nearly impossible to fit more than 1 on a [[Venture]]). | ||

These modules allow expedition frigates (the [[Endurance]] and the [[Prospect]]) to harvest ice. They operate on very long cycle times and all have the same yield per cycle (1,000m³). | |||

The Tech 2 ice miner has ~10% more yield (181 m3/min) than its Tech 1 counterpart (166 m3/min), but requires more skill training. The ORE miner (available from the ORE loyalty points store) is just as good as the Tech 2 miner, but it's very rare and expensive, and therefore it's worth investing the time to train Ice Harvesting to level V to use the Tech 2 version. | |||
