Private mines. I bought one, and this is what I found...

Klaatu:
I also think the mine is worth the price. It is (in addition to your tent) another safe place that can be used for storing stuff and parking cars. You can also leave your mercs, slaves, brahmins and caravan carts there without having to worry about thieves. You also get some minerals and ore, but that is not an important factor due to (guarded) public mines. There is a waterpipe too, that can be used to fill water bags. Your thirsty brahmins will love this place! :)

And just like a tent or a base, a mine can be used for organizing private events without the fear of some outsider(s) ruining it.

I use my mine like an outpost or a private base. And if a player also belongs to a faction, he/she can have three different places for storing stuff (plus shared tents of course). However, anyone considering buying a mine could just use an alt to make a shared tent and save 75k... But especially for honest loners, the mine is worth it. And for crafters it is not even that expensive. Just craft a couple of Brotherhood armors, sell them to other players, and you will soon have the 75k for buying the mine.

For me, the mine also has a feel of something special in it, because I had to work hard for the caps that I spent on it. ;) The buying experience was also quite a thrill, since I was walking alone in the wastes with 75k in my pocket trying to avoid random encounters and other players. Sealing the deal was quite a relief, and I sure felt a bit proud when I first saw my mine.

CaptOmg:
Ah, I never knew you could get a private mine.

I might buy one when I have more caps.

Solar:
It needs to be fixed so the amount of materials you get out exceed the cost, but post wipe this should be the only way un-supervised slaves can be left to mine when you are not online - so it should be pretty useful.

I started out with mining 1 piece of ore, before setting my slaves to farm.. Mine is now depleated  :(

Slaver Snipe:
Would be nice if there was a very low chance to get a HQ mine instead of a regular one.
