Usually, there will be a message or it will tell you to beware of mines on your op orders. Also, it has been my experience that SC reflects the actual real world. You probably know, from your readings where mines could b expected, the Straits are for sure a place to expect mines. Off Korea and the Formosa Straits are other places. The Sea of Oshtok and especially in the Kurile Islands you will usually detect mines.
Use HF in any areas you might suspect mines, plus for fun in the stock mission, after the Cargo Ship sinks, look at it with HF, it is rather neat. HF is very handy and does not attract the bad guys.
Sonar 732 can tell you almost any thing you want to know about Sonar. I have learned a lot from him.
Patch to SCX for a real simulation.
good hunting
