Cloaking defeats eyes. Note how one scanning option is "Hyper Optics". This implies some sort of enhanced normal visual methods (silly, yes, but it is in the game  ). Sort of like a hubble telescope I guess. Why this can see cloaked ships is beyond me. But, this can be defeated (esp. by Mines). So, it would seem to follow that cloaking literally makes mines invisible, not just hides them from scanners.
