Is there any way to remove enemy mines other than using mine sweepers or throwing ships at them? Will 20 fighters in a group destroy 20 mines (and die)?

I haven't tested this, but I guess the group of fighters is treated as one ship. It will blow up mines until it takes enough damage to destroy all of it (so it'll probably take one or two mines.)

If I have a ship that can sweep 100 mine fields, and we encounter a field with 100 mines, do all get swept, or is there some risk that some will go off?

As many as you can sweep will get swept, there's no chance involved.

If I have a fleet at a wormhole and give them orders to return to a base and be mothballed, will they be mothballed at the base? Does the base need a shipyard?

I don't think you can give the order if you're not already at a sector with a shipyard. If you are at a shipyard and order them to move to another shipyard and then mothball, I am not sure whether they'll remember the order. Oh wait, you're talking about SE:V. Why didn't you say so? In that case probably yes, they should remember the order. And you can't mothball, retrofit, salvage, or analyze anything unless you have a shipyard in the sector.
