What is the best fitting for maximum mining on a Venture with a maxed skilled Alpha Clone?

I mean how hard can it be to figure it out?

high slots: 2 best mining lasers you can find
low slot: 1 best mining laser upgrade you can find

med slots: these don't affect mining, but if you want survivability perhaps a shield extender / hardener, or maybe a survey scanner so you can see what's in the roids and pick the best

[Venture, Mining (Alpha)]
Mining Laser Upgrade II

1MN Monopropellant Enduring Afterburner
Medium Azeotropic Restrained Shield Extender
Survey Scanner II

Miner II
Miner II
Small Tractor Beam I

Small Anti-EM Screen Reinforcer I
Small Anti-EM Screen Reinforcer I
Small Anti-Thermal Screen Reinforcer I

Hobgoblin I x2

Really as long as you take 2x Miner II, 1x Mining Laser Upgrade II, and a Survey Scaner II, the rest is preference. That gets you 377 m³/min. You can take a tractor/salvager/probe launcher, whatever is most useful tractor has the largest fitting requirement so I put that in. I like the medium shield extender and plugging the resist holes with rigs, but you might want to go with grav rigs to improve probing.

But 2x Miner II, 1x Mining Laser Upgrade II = max mining rate on an Alpha Venture.

EDIT:

Oh faction miners. 2x ORE Miner (140M each) will get you up to 408 m³/min. You'll have to decide for yourself if 280M is worth it for +31 m³/min.
