Miners?

[peo]

How many miners do we actually have in fountain?
I feel very lonely trying to mine usually and to be honest it wont work past at most the next carrier (or any other construction for that matter).
So either we need more miners in fountain or we need to figure out something else to do.

(getting very sick of losing iterons worth probably more than the ore hauled with them...)

C and Brian are both miners iirc - he splits his time between hi and 0.0 though.

Zig & Krunked too - although he is prep for a move back to la i think at mo.

My miners are in KASEI mining ice Im afraid.

Both my miners are hi sec and in Kassei.

I have no clones for them in Fountain and no ships.

Ok.
Did some calculations, the only long term way to fuel cap production for us is to buy minerals in empire and haul to fountain in that case.

From what I can see the costs would be about 550m per carrier not counting jump costs for minerals, estimate them at 60m in total. So 610m in costs leaves about 140m in profits not counting blueprint costs.
