I have a alt who has perfect mining, refining and manufacturing skills.
How long would it take me to mine enough minerals to make a drake?

More info

In hulk with 3x strip miner 2 / tech 2 mining crystals and 2x mining upgrade 2's in lows.
In null sec in system my alliance owns.
Mining to a jet can.
Alt char in battlecruiser to kill rats then haul ore when jet can is full, my mammoth can hold 27k m3

Any suggestions on what or types I should concentrate my mining on would be great!

Mine what's most valuable in an ISK/hour sense and sell it in order to buy the minerals to build the Drake.

It will probably take you 3 hours or so. Roughly 2 hours of actual mining, the rest will get used up with moving/hauling/cyclying lasers. You will probably want to spend the most time mining Veldspar. Drake is like 2.6m trit or something like that . You can get enough mega and zyd from 4 or 5 refines of ark. Also Nocx is in extremely high demand. If you can get orca support it would half that time most likely.
