[X3TC] Mobile Mining question

I know that the maximum output is more or less limited by your distribution chain (e.g. the speed and cargo hold of your ships), but can anyone give me numbers on this question?

What is the output per hour of silicon wafers through mobile mining?

Likewise for ore?

If I could think of it in terms of output per mining ship as I do factory mines, that would help with complex planning.

The analysis seems to be that 21 ships = 29 stations in terms of max output. I think. Read the "How Much?" section in the middle.

Not sure exact numbers. But my Silicon fleet it works out to roughly 2 miners = 1 L fab, or 5 S fabs.

Okay so going with deca.death's guesstimate, we're talking an output of around 234 ore / silicon wafers per hour, per ship? (1.3 ore per 20 seconds x 3 = 3.9 per minute x 60 minutes = 234 per hour)
