Mining is quite profitable if you know what sells well and what doesn't! I haven't done much, granted, but a haul of 21 mixed goods, I think there was some silver and uranium in it, and I made almost 50,000 credits. And that's raw profit, since I didn't have to buy them in the first place.

Also, I've gotten quite good at picking up the rocks, and I think without that I would quickly grow tired of just floating there. As for the % value of the chunks, have you tried using a medium mining laser? I think they get more per chunk.
