{{update|The mining barges and exhumers were tweaked in 118.8 (September 2016).}} | |||
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.
