So, i heard multiple theories on the type of miner you should get. what would be the best type of miner to use, and which miner is the fastest at gathering ores?
That's dependent on the job, mostly.
Multipliers are based on both ID and vessel, so whatever ores are within your faction's range of operation are probably given a bonus.
Junkers get a bonus to PScrap mining, with the best miner being the CSF, from personal experience.
IMG gets a bonus to Niobium mining.
Mollies and BMF get a Gold mining bonus.
So on and so forth.

Good thing about mining is you can mine for yourself, or you can be paid pretty good to fill other peoples ships. Fill a large freighter can net you a couple/few million credits for your time.
