So what actually determines the bonus for mining ?

[FraserTE]

Ive seen some of the larger mining transports get like 4 and 6

where as i have seen some of the mining fighters get up to 14 on a constant.

What factor determines this ?

First: You've got a picture in there that's 800x286 pixels. The maximum signature size is 700x250.
Second: Your other picture in the rotation fills the full 700x250 boundaries by itself.
With an image that big, you can't fit any text below it. Please fix this.

What Spazzy said plus: The ID/IFF you carry must be valid for the commodity you are mining, must match (except for "Miner" ID which works with any IFF), and the mining bonus must be active for the specific commodity. See the list of commodities:

[Edit] I do wonder though. The Wiki states that the larger transport mining turret should get a bigger bonus drop, hinting at a difference between fighter and transport turret. Wonder if the difference is reversed somehow.
