* The Mining Volley Repeater seems to include a flat boost to minerals. Higher percentage rocks give more moderate boosts, but lower percentage rocks can have their tonnage per rock as much as doubled.
* The Mining Volley Repeater - in addition to mining normally - generates a bonus 12 tons of minerals as 'Deposit Fragments'(as opposed to 'Fragments'). These bonus chunks are subdivided proportionately based on the rock mineral percentages.
* It pulls about 46 fragments a minute, compared to medium mining lasers which do about 25.1 fragments per minute. Even though this is slower than two medium lasers, the fragment bonus makes up the difference.<ref>[https://www.reddit.com/r/EliteMiners/comments/1nkuicd/new_info_on_mining_volley_repeater/ New Info On Mining Volley Repeater]</ref>

* If combined with mining lasers, those lasers will not get a fragment bonus. The combination reduces the overall fragments from a rock by some amount.<ref>[https://www.reddit.com/r/EliteMiners/comments/1nkuicd/new_info_on_mining_volley_repeater/ New Info On Mining Volley Repeater]</ref>
