Actually, that's a horrible idea because it would break up in the atmosphere and many of the valuable materials you want to mine would be burned up.

Crash it into the moon instead, but then something still goes wrong and the axial wobble and ocean currents of the earth are all thrown off kilter leading to climatic cataclysm. Then a cyborg gets sent into the past to change the future. Blockbuster guaranteed, funding further asteroid mining research.
