It is possible to use 1 fighter to expend 1 mine, provided you send 1 fighter at a time.
Just try that in PBW (simultaneous mode).

If fighters are cheaper than mines I'll do it. =^.^=

Seriously though, I think a set of 10 destroyers with 5 MinesweeperIIs should be sufficient. The maximum minefield size is 100 mines, yes?

Yes the max is 100 mines.
Unless your playing an older Version and know the exploit

Light Cruisers (LC) should be cheaper than destroyers.
You should research LCs because the Large Weapon Mount makes them more effective.

I believe the mines troubling our new friend are on the other side of a warp point, anyway. Fighters can't go through warp points, I don't believe.

Fighters can warp. You just need to select the fighter group (make sure it have less than 100 fighters) then press ctrl, alt and delete before giving the warp order.
