How the floor is calculated
BX-VEX VII - Moon 15 · BX-VEX · 4QZ-2M
The floor is what the alliance would earn by dropping a Metenox
on this moon — the passive income active miners have to beat. The chain:
monthly ore units → split by composition → reprocess (× refine yield)
→ value materials at Jita split → gross
− Magmatic Gas fuel = floor
Value at each Jita price
| Basis | Mined value / mo | − fuel |

Jita sell is the optimistic ceiling (you fill your own sell orders);
Jita buy the floor (dump everything to buy orders); split
the midpoint the auction floor uses.

Yield density
813 / m³
8,760,000 m³ mined / 30 days
| Base moon extraction | 30,000 | m³ / hour (game constant) |
| Metenox efficiency | 40% | of a manually worked Athanor/Tatara |
| Hours / month | 730 | 730 = 365 × 24 ÷ 12 |
| Moon ore volume | 10 | m³ / unit |
| Refine yield (max skills + structure) | 90.6% | of the theoretical 100% reprocessing result |
| Magmatic Gas burn | 40 | units / hour → 29,200 / 30 days |
| Material prices | Jita split | buy/sell midpoint if "split" |
| Magmatic Gas price | 2k | Jita sell, per unit |
Step 0 — how much a Metenox pulls in 30 days
30,000 m³/hr × 40% × 730 hr
= 8,760,000 m³ of moon ore
÷ 10 m³/unit = 876,000 units of moon ore / 30 days
Step 1 — split the monthly ore by composition
| Ore | Share | Units / 30 days | = portions (÷100) |
| Loparite | 34.6% |
302,746 |
3,027 |
| Monazite | 28.8% |
252,638 |
2,526 |
| Cinnabar | 20.1% |
176,339 |
1,763 |
| Cobaltite | 16.5% |
144,277 |
1,443 |
Step 2 & 3 — reprocess each ore, then value the materials
per material:
portions × SDE yield × 90.6% × Jita split price

Step 4 — gross
| Refined material (all ores) | Units / 30 days | ISK / 30 days |
| Promethium | 60,343 | 3.19B |
| Neodymium | 50,356 | 3.13B |
| Mercury | 79,881 | 289.3M |

| Evaporite Deposits | 69,743 | 14.3M |
| Gross | 7,122,839,290 ISK |
Step 5 — Magmatic Gas fuel
40 / hr × 730 hr
= 29,200 units × 2k
= 52,355,600 ISK / 30 days
Step 6 — floor
| Gross | 7,122,839,290 ISK |
| − Magmatic Gas fuel | −52,355,600 ISK |
| Model floor | 7,070,483,690 ISK / 30 days |
| Floor used by the auction |
7,070,483,690 ISK / month |
Step 7 — what a bidder pays
| Term length | 3 months |
| Minimum monthly bid | 7,070,483,690 ISK (the floor) |
| Prepaid to the alliance on winning |
bid × 3 — at the floor, 21,211,451,069 ISK |
| Viability floor |
300,000,000 ISK / month —
