Wasp missiles are better, destroy mines in 1 hit, you need 2 or more Mosquitos.

use mosquitos, u can get them in red light i think, the sector north of the temple's sector. you'll need 2 mosquitos for each mine, buy at least 25 mosquitos. Fire them from 9 or 8 km away

there is that way :lol: or you can purchase some wasp missiles from argon prime equipment dock (10) then fly back to the mines and blow seven shit into them :twisted: thats the way i did it. dont forget to fire the missiles at about 4km away, you dont want to get caught in the explosion.
