A DLC-13 mining droid is pictured here.
Droids designed for mining constituted a specific class of droid employed in mining endeavors. A prime illustration of this type is the DLC-13 mining droid, which incorporated a repulsorlift system for the purpose of extracting ores from lava flows. Certain older iterations of mining droids underwent modifications, receiving combat programming, and subsequently functioned as sentinels on planets like Burnin Konn, Mataou, and Bespin. On Mataou, these droids were utilized by the Hutts, operating in conjunction with Hutt Guard Droids.
