How the floor is calculated
DS-LO3 VII - Moon 5 · DS-LO3 · F-RA63
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 |
Net / mo | Per 3-mo term |

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

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) |
|---|
| Chromite | 30.8% |
269,458 |
2,695 |
| Vanadinite | 28.4% |
248,872 |

| Loparite | 21.8% |
190,880 |
1,909 |
| Xenotime | 19.0% |
166,790 |
1,668 |
Step 2 & 3 — reprocess each ore, then value the materials
per material:
portions × SDE yield × 90.6% × Jita split price
Chromite — 555.4M / 30 days

Step 4 — gross
| Refined material (all ores) | Units / 30 days | ISK / 30 days |
|---|
| Promethium | 38,046 | 2.01B |
| Dysprosium | 33,245 | 1.65B |
| Chromium | 97,651 | 544.6M |
| Vanadium | 105,302 | 253.8M |

| Atmospheric Gases | 30,222 | 5.0M |
| Gross | 4,669,052,044 ISK |
Step 5 — Magmatic Gas fuel
40 / hr × 730 hr
= 29,200 units × 2k
= 52,355,600 ISK / 30 days
Step 6 — floor
| Gross | 4,669,052,044 ISK |
| − Magmatic Gas fuel | −52,355,600 ISK |
| Model floor | 4,616,696,444 ISK / 30 days |
| Floor used by the auction |
4,616,696,444 ISK / month |
Step 7 — what a bidder pays
| Term length | 3 months |
| Minimum monthly bid | 4,616,696,444 ISK (the floor) |
| Prepaid to the alliance on winning |
bid × 3 — at the floor, 13,850,089,332 ISK |
| Viability floor |
300,000,000 ISK / month —
