The Basic Miner series of badges requires you to mine AND sell ore to get credit for the badge (ores collected by a mission count as sold). The way this works is each type of ore has separate ore mined and ore sold counters, and the lower of each set of numbers counts toward the total.

For Example:
Ishik Ore Xithricite Ore Lanthanic Ore Heliocene Ore
150 cu Mined 200 cu Mined 0 cu Mined 20 cu Mined
100 cu Sold 400 cu Sold 50 cu Sold 0 cu Sold
Credit for badge = MINIMUM(150, 100) + MINIMUM(200,400) + MINIMUM(0,50) + MINIMUM(20,0)
Credit for badge = 100 + 200 + 0 + 0
Credit for badge = 300
