How the floor is calculated
MKD-O8 IV - Moon 7 · MKD-O8 · A-Z7C9
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

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
106 / 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) |
| Coesite | 35.2% |
308,702 |
3,087 |
| Vanadinite | 33.1% |
289,868 |
2,899 |
| Cinnabar | 19.6% |
171,696 |
1,717 |
| Bitumens | 12.1% |
105,733 |
1,057 |
Step 2 & 3 — reprocess each ore, then value the materials
per material:
portions × SDE yield × 90.6% × Jita split price
Coesite — 218.1M / 30 days
| Material | Units / 30 days | Jita split | ISK / 30 days |
| Pyerite | 5,593,687 |

| Mexallon | 1,118,737 |

| Mexallon | 383,177 |
49 | 18.6M |
| Hydrocarbons | 62,266 |
443 | 27.6M |
Step 4 — gross
| Refined material (all ores) | Units / 30 days | ISK / 30 days |
| Mercury | 77,778 | 281.7M |
| Vanadium | 105,048 | 253.2M |
| Pyerite | 11,341,344 | 184.6M |
| Silicates | 208,057 | 83.2M |
| Mexallon | 1,501,915 | 73.0M |
| Hydrocarbons | 62,266 | 27.6M |
| Tungsten | 15,556 | 19.9M |
| Evaporite Deposits | 23,333 | 4.8M |
| Gross | 927,988,425 ISK |
Step 5 — Magmatic Gas fuel
40 / hr × 730 hr
= 29,200 units × 2k
= 52,355,600 ISK / 30 days
Step 6 — floor
| Gross | 927,988,425 ISK |
| − Magmatic Gas fuel | −52,355,600 ISK |
| Model floor | 875,632,825 ISK / 30 days |
| Floor used by the auction |
875,632,825 ISK / month |
Step 7 — what a bidder pays
| Term length | 3 months |
| Minimum monthly bid | 875,632,825 ISK (the floor) |
| Prepaid to the alliance on winning |
bid × 3 — at the floor, 2,626,898,474 ISK |
| Viability floor |
300,000,000 ISK / month —
