Can miners handle multiple resources again?

It's been a few patches since that broke, and I'm on a playthrough using mainly Terran tech. Can I safely build computronic substrate factories that do their own harvesting of ore and silicon, or is it still better to ship it out of single material resource depots?

As long as you have enough storage they will mine multiple resources and drop them off properly. But if one type of resorce storage is at capacity they will keep taxiing that stuff around.
In doubt i set some miners on trade and set sales acordingly so storage is balanced out at all times.
But they do a pretty good job if you have all types of raw materials in one complex and prioritize the stuff taht is low.

Playing 4.2 beta, it seems possibly significantly better than it used to be,
most station miners look to be carrying a single mineral/gas resource (but some still have two).
Overall not getting station starvation of any resource,
the improvement might have been earlier - in 4.10 though.
