Newly created miner here, was wondering if there are any missions aimed at miner/trader types ie. non combat missions?
Thanks for your time.

There are courier missions, check somewhere like www.eveinfo.com for details on which agents give them. I personally don't like to do them but some do...

I'd love to see some variety to industrial missions now; maybe some scripted with specific items needing to be mined, explored or dug out from a mission specific belt with opposition.

There are also player-made courier missions available that are worth keeping an eye out for. While most player courier missions are not worth the time (pay less than a NPC courier mission without even gaining you faction) every so often you can find a good one. These tend to get snapped up quickly though.

I wouldn't do PC courier missions, simply because there is a chance its a scam. I don't trust people outside my alliance. --- It have always fallen to a few to sacrifice for the good of many

If you watch the route you are supposed to travel and the destination, and then compare pay and collateral you should be fine.
Sure, people have been setting up contracts to lure pilots into low sec to cash in the collateral for worthless items, but that can be avoided if you check the route beforehand.
I often set up contracts to get stuff hauled around since I dislike hauling and rather spend the time blowing up stuff. I usually pay pretty well too because I go by "how much is the time saved worth to me". But, as Viktoria wrote, these missions get taken fast. And I also set a collateral that corresponds to the item value, so the mission might be outside the range a new pilot can afford.

However, I have noticed :) ... if you are going for standing, then these babies work out pretty well, I've been missioning for Roden (Marketing IIRC) and getting about 50/50 kill/courier, and the majority of the couriers are 2-3 jumps in a shuttle so it's a quick way of getting to the next storyline whilst still blowing quite a lot of stuff up

I am wondering why, like security missions, mining agents wouldn't have deadspace missions where ores are to be mined? Perhaps some NPCs to make it interesting and lvl 4's lucrative enough that using a Hulk might be desired.

Funny enough, the mining agents do not EVER give out mining missions anymore. They used to give missions asking for X amount of Y ore. I have been trying to get such a mission for easy standing gain lately and not a single one has been offered in well over 100 missions run and even more turned down. Seems like CCP has something against mining missions.
