Good advice Emperor's Child.

Are you playing a turn based game, or a simultaneous game?

I also have been using mining ships alot, and just recently replaced most of them with destroyers so I could get minerals and radioactives from the same ships.
Turn based. I have yet to play a PBW game.

On the mining ships, I'd suggest you go all one type on a single ship for the long haul. If you have one or 100 remote miners on a single ship, it will drop the minerals percentage by one percent per turn. Same thing for the raidoactives. If you put one of each on each ship, you will reduce the square with only minimal output to show for it. Going the other way, you get a lot more production per ship (you can swap locations of radioactive miners and mineral miners when appropriate)
