The x8 - Small Utility Ship mines 6k metal, 350 crystal, or 50 Duet in a 20 minute span.
200 metal per min, 17.5 crystal per min, and 2.5 Duet per min
Up to Belt lvl 2
The x10 - Medium Utility Ship mines 30k metal, 1.5k crystal, or 350 Duet in a 1hour 40 minute span.
300 metal per min, 15 crystal per min, and 3.5 Duet per min
up to belt lvl 4
The X20 - Large Utility Ship mines 120k metal, 15k crystal, or 9k Duet in a 6 hour 40 minute span.
300 metal per min, 37.5 crystal per min, and 22.5 Duet per min
up to belt lvl 6
These are the default rates. Each one can be upgraded via Enhance System for the "Engineering UAV System".
Also, if you pair a AC721 - Heavy Logistics Destroyer "Generic Type" with your miner, you will extend the Cargo Capacity MASSIVELY. This will massively increase the efficiency of your miners, as there will be less travel time between Asteroids and Base. The bigger the cargo hold the better you are off.
