I am curious is there any way to mine planets in the base game or take advantage of the surveys?

Not right now, but planetary surveys are currently a stub and you can expect more features that take advantage of them.

You can survey and sell the data on the market. Better to take a survey mission before, so you can double down on it. Although, only Class V data is the worthwhile one. The rest just meh. Beside, survey data is finite resources.

Just don't forget to sell the survey data to Sindria or somewhere with a high stability!  ;) It's worth more at such locations.

Practically sell them to Sindria alone. They pay an arm and a leg for them.

Right now Sindria's the center of the universe. They give a good price for anything, and then sell you fuel and supplies cheap.
