Mining Barges: Build cost changes?

I was wondering if the upcoming mining barge changes will include any changes in build cost? I.e. the Procurer currently requires around 2M ISK worth of minerals to build. Any plans to change this? Especially when the Covetor requires in the neighborhood of 30M ISK worth of minerals to build? I'm not sure if this has been discussed.

Also, what are the new mining rigs made of?

There's no information about this available at this time, sorry.

What are the new mining rigs? Where can I read about those?

I couldn't find any on the SiSi market, but I may have overlooked them. I assume they'd be NPC sourced on SiSi, but that may also be a bad assumption.

They are both on sisi now.. search on the name that is bolded on the market.

If they do not change this, the Procurer will be able to mine itself in about 10 minutes.

What would that matter? If its got a good tank people might actually use it in lowsec if they can replace it easily. But then their killer wouldn't get their thrill knowing they hurt someone.
