Some players may chaff sweep the minefield - send lots of single chaffs at warp 9 or 10 across the minefield to deliberately hit it and make it smaller.
For a 35 l.y. minefield this would take a lot of chaff as the last few mines get harder and harder to hit, and once somebody commits to chaff sweeping they usually want to remove all risk.
Is the minefield centered on your planet ?

If not then 42% seems a big risk to lose all the support ships.
He may split his fleet into smaller chunks - to get some through.
He may just send a base killing fleet and bring everything else in next turn.
Does he seriously outnumber you (or does he think that he does) ?

If this is his first attack against you then you really just don't know.
