This is a followup to a reddit post which shows the comparison of the different combinations of mining ships and boost.
This page is currently limited to ore yields (except Mercoxit) but will be extended to ice and gas.
Meanwhile the game displays the outcome of mining yield in the hover information of the mining laser. For example when a hulk with is boosted to the maximum possible value it displays a 37.8m3/s value on its mining laser see this example screenshot:
This table shows the different outcome of mining yield with the different ships and boost types with all skills set to 5.
All numbers in m3/s per mining laser (ingame values listed for proving the numbers to be correct)

The Mining amount of ore collected via drones is listed in the attributes section of the info window for each drone.
In this example it is 2651.28 m3
This value is calculated as followed:
# skills
my $Drone_Interfacing_Skill = 5;
my $Mining_Drone_Operation_Skill = 5;
my $Mining_Drone_Specialization_Skill = 4; # example value not maxed.
my $Industrial_Command_Ships_Skill = 5;
# Excavator Mining Drone base yield
my $drone_base = 100;
my $drone_yield_per_second = $drone_base
* (1 + 0.1 * $Industrial_Command_Ships_Skill)
* (1 + 0.1 * $Drone_Interfacing_Skill)
* (1 + 0.05 * $Mining_Drone_Operation_Skill)
* (1 + 0.02 * $Mining_Drone_Specialization_Skill)
* (1 + 0.15 ) # medium mining drone augmentor II
* (1 + 0.15 ) # medium mining drone augmentor II
* (1 + 0.10 ) # medium mining drone augmentor I
* (1 + 5.00 ); # 500% ic2 bonus
printf("%3.2f", $drone_yield_per_second); # prints 2651.28
The outcome for all kinds of mining drones is this. Note that that the venture can only operate two drones while all other ships run up to five drones.

eXistence_42 requested the mining yield for the drones to be comparable to the ship yield numbers. For this purpose the yield value is multiplied by the number of drones (2 for the venture and 5 for other ships) and divided by the 60s cycle duration. Note that it leaves out the travel time between the drones and the ship, so the real numbers will be lower than listed here.
