The Miners get their own little asteroid base, the Mining Outpost, reachable by creating a wormhole the aptly-named mining outpost beacon with a Space Pod and by taking the Mining Department's Mining Shuttle. The latter will take you to the left end of the Space Diner, after which you'll need to go to the lower dock on the left side and call up John's Bus. John's Bus will then take you to a small dock below the bulk of the outpost. You can then walk across the catwalks through or shove yourself down the transport chute to "Mining".
Since the majority of mining is done on the main station these days, the outpost serves as a hub area for the more civilized parts of the debris field instead. There's still an arc smelter and other backup mining equipment to be found here, though you'll have to set up the magnet yourself. It's pretty simple though; all you have to do is add mineral magnet parts to the magnet chassis, hit the chassis with the mining gizmo, and click on a tile with the gizmo to designate the lower left corner of the magnet.
Most non-Miner crew members will be blocked by the Mining-locked doors, but they can still use the module full of Internals supplies, the foyer connecting the mining-related facilities, and the Mining Outpost Pod Bay and its Indypods. Expect a lot of people coming in and out of here if there's a real serious Solarium expedition going on.
If both communication dishes on the mother station somehow manage to end up beyond repair, the mining outpost has its own tertiary antenna, a ComMaster disk and an unfinished computer frame for those last stand moments.
There's also a little tech outpost/mechanic's den in the southwest corner, connected to the main outpost by catwalks, featuring a complete Ruckingenur kit and Reverse-Engineering Fabricator setup, a Mechcomp Vendor, various electrical engineering doodads, and numerous computer components. Super useful for making a secret personal/citizen's armory making copies of the cool loot and gadgets you find scattered throughout the debris field.
