I know that it may not have much to do with it - but scientists have been working on a star trek style transporter beam...

They can teleport photons at the moment, but given time, they may be able to teleport something as big as an asteroid...

I'd love to see that as a reality, however what they can do right now is completely deconstruct what is on one side of the teleporter and build an exact copy somewhere else. So with the current technology, you might as well abandon the mining and program it to make what you want.
