==Mercoxit vs. Bistot==
<tt>
Skiff Mining Amount:
Skiff effective mining amount = (Strip Miner II Mining Amount)*(Asteroid Specialization Yield Modifier)*(1+Role Bonus)*(1+0,05*Mining Skill)*(1+0,05*Astrogeology Skill)*(1+Mining Laser Upgrade Bonus)*(1+Highwall MX-5 Implantat)

Rorqual Bonus:
Rorqual Bonus = Mining laser optimiziation II bonus*(1+0,2*Mining Director Skill)*(1+Miningforeman Mindlink Bonus)*(1+0,1*Warfare Link Specialist Skill)*(1+0,1*Capital Industrial Ships)
Rorqual Bonus = 0.075*(1+0.2*5)*(1+0.25)*(1+0.1*5)*(1+0.1*5)=
Rorqual Bonus = 0.42

Cycle Time:
Skiff Cycle time = base time * (1-0,02*Mining Barge Skill)*(1-0,02*Exhumer Skill) * (1 - Roqual Bonus)
Skiff Cycle time = 180s * (1-0.02*5)*(1-0.02*5)*(1-0.42)
Skiff Cycle time=84,29s

Mercoxit:
Skiff effective mining amount = 250*(1.375)*(1+1.5)*(1+0.05*5)*(1+0.05*5)*(1+0.295)*(1+0.05)
Skiff effective mining amount = 2100

with Medium Mercoxit Crystal Optimization I:
Mercoxit mining amount = Skiff effective mining amount * (1+0,16)
Mercoxit mining amount = 2436
Mercoxit mining amount rounded down to a multiple of 40m3 = 2400

Bistot:
Skiff effective mining amount = 360*(1.75)*(1+1.5)*(1+0.05*5)*(1+0.05*5)*(1+0.295)
Skiff effective mining amount = 3848

Bistot m3 per hour = (Skiff effective mining amount)*(60seconds)*(60*minutes)/(Skiff Cycle time)
Bistot m3 per hour = 3848 * 60 * 60 / 84.29
Bistot m3 per hour = 164,346m3
fuzzwork Bistot ISK per hour = ( Bistot m3 per hour ) * 665.2
Bistot ISK per hour = 109.322.959 ISK * (reprocessing factor in highsec 0.72)
Bistot ISK per hour = 78.712.530.624

Mercoxit m3 per hour = 2400 * 60 * 60 / 84.29
Mercoxit m3 per hour = 102,503 m3
fuzzwork Mercoxit ISK per hour = ( Mercoxit m3 per hour ) * 974.14

== The Asteroid is depleted! ==
Here we analyze the number of seconds a mining laser operates on an asteroid until it is depleted. Higher values are green, because we are lazy and to not want to target new asteroids too often.

To calculate the number for seconds we take the [[Mining_Ship_Comparison#Asteroid_size_by_security|average size of a Veldspare Asteroid]] in a 0.7 system (6,785 m3) and devide it by the [[Mining_Ship_Comparison#Mining_Yield_By_Ships|amount of ore]] extracted by a single strip miner II on a Covetor (1170m3) which is 5.8 cycles. So in this case the mining laser runs for 6 full cycles (each with 144s). This makes six times 144 seconds = 864 seconds until the miner stops. Because we have three lasers which are started and stopped randomly on different asteroids we get an average time interval of one third of that. So each 288 seconds an Asteroid is depleted when mining Veldspare in a 0.7 System with a Covetor.

== Cargo Hold fill times ==
In this table we ask how long it takes to fill the cargo hold of a certain ship. It is calulated by taking thecargo hold value and devide it by the m3/s value from [[Mining_Ship_Comparison#Mining_Yield_By_Ships|this table]] .

As you see the Hulk and Covetor are filled up after just two cycles, so it is not possible to mine with them without doing jet-canning or having an orca's fleet hangar open nearby.

== Ore Prices in Jita ==
Here we extracted the market history from different ores via [https://neweden-dev.com/CREST CREST API]. We then calculated the 20 day moving average for each day. The result is then converted into ISK per m3 to get compareable values according to the effort to extract the ore.

So lets say the 20 day moving average for Plagioclase is 51 ISK for 0.35m3 of Plagiolcase. This makes 145 ISK for an m3 of Plagioclase at that day.

== Regional Market Differences ==

Here we extracted the market history from Scordite in two different regions. We picked The Forge as the region with the most market traffic and on the other extreme we picked Derelik which is among the high-sec regions with the lowest traffic.

We then caclulated the 20-day-moving-average for the amount of scordite (converted in m3) and displayed it as blue lines in the diagram on the left y-axis. Then we added the 20-day-moving-price-average as yellow lines on the right y-axis.

The result is displayed here:

[[File:scordite_forge_vs_derelik.png |700px]]

From this diagram we can learn that Scordite is 20% cheaper in Derelik (152 ISK per m3 average) compared to The Forge (186 ISK per m3 average). But at the same time there are 6,735,000m3 sold per day in The Forge while only 506,000m3 are sold per day in Derelik. So if you buy all Scordite in Derelik for a 20% cheaper price you would not even fill a freighter with it.

== Mineral Density and Market Prices ==
=== Scordite vs. Omber ===
The mineral density is a theory which derives ore values from the blue print data. Here we check how this assumptions match to market prices.

So according to the mineral density scordite is twice as valuable as omber. Note that the market data shows that it is sold much more often than omber which is an indication for its popularity but at the same time it is an indication for over abundance which in turn lowers its market value.

[[File:ScorditeVsOmber.png |700px]]

So from the 2014 market history from The Forge we learn that scordite solds averagely 6.7M m3 per day for 186 ISK per m3. While Omber sold 1M m3 per day for 155 ISK. So the market data on Scordite is not clearly twice as good as Omber but around 20% better. Note that these are average values. There have been times when Scordite and Omber nearly sold identically.

=== Scordite vs. Kernite ===

Here the average value of Kernite is determined with 3.7M m3 per day for 212 ISK per m3 which is 8.3% better than Scordite

[[File:ScorditeVsKernite.png |700px]]

=== Scordite vs. Pyroxeres ===

Here the average value of Pyroxeres is determined with 10.7M m3 per day for 188 ISK per m3 which is nearly the same than Scordite

[[File:ScorditeVsPyroxeres.png |700px]]

=== Scordite vs. Plagioclase ===

Here the average value of Pyroxeres is determined with 10.1M m3 per day for 175 ISK per m3 which is also nearly the same than Scordite

[[File:ScorditeVsPlagioclase.png |700px]]

=== Scordite vs. Veldspar===

Here the average value of Veldspar is determined with 11.7M m3 per day for 165 ISK per m3 which is 10% less than Scordite.
