* [[File:Pickaxe.png|32px]] Pickaxes and Drills - For tunneling through everything. Place this on your belt, it saves room. You also can get various drills and other tools from science and your mining vendor. These will dig faster, and may have other advantages!

* Other Mining Tools - These are things like the Kinetic Accelerator, and the Resonator. They double as ways to fight xeno scum and/or other people and are very robust.
* [[File:Shovel.png|32px]] Shovel - Gathering sand. You can stick this in your backpack.

* [[File:OreCrate.png|32px]] Ore Crate - Used for carrying huge amounts of ore. While a satchel can only hold 50 nuggets, this can hold an unlimited sum. Use your satchel on the box to empty it into the box, place the box in the unloading machine's input slot to unload it.

'''Gear that will be very handy, but not included:'''
* [[File:KineticAccelerator.png|32px]] Proto-kinetic Accelerator - A gun. The good part is that it packs a punch in a vacuum and has infinite shots. The bad part is that it tickles in pressurized environments, needs to be reloaded after each shot, and has a range of two steps. Each blast can clear a rock wall if you feel like digging using this.
* [[File:Ripley.png|32px]] [[Roboticist#Ripley_APLU|Ripley]] - Just because these mechs are awesome at mining. A Ripley equipped with a drill and with an ore box loaded up (using the Hydraulic Clamp) mines three squares at a time and automatically picks up any ore gained from the squares. It also mines about as fast as a diamond pick.
* [[File:Resonator.png|32px]] Resonator - Another deadly tool. This will instantly clear a rock wall when clicked on, and when used in hand or swung at empty space, will create a field on that spot that lasts for about five seconds before rupturing, causing serious damage to anything standing on it.
* [[File:MiningDrone.png|32px]] Mining Drone - This helpful little guy goes around collecting loose ore so you don't have to. Will drop its haul when you hit it with the mining scanner. Clicking on it with an empty hand will toggle it between ore collection and wildlife fighting mode, where it will attack xenos with its built-in kinetic accelerator and drill.
