How the floor is calculated
ES-Q0W VI - Moon 13 · ES-Q0W · XLL-Z7
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
140 / 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) |
|---|
| Vanadinite | 31.6% |
276,852 |
2,769 |
| Sperrylite | 31.0% |
271,971 |
2,720 |
| Sylvite | 25.7% |
224,767 |
2,248 |
| Cobaltite | 11.7% |
102,410 |
1,024 |
Step 2 & 3 — reprocess each ore, then value the materials
per material:
portions × SDE yield × 90.6% × Jita split price
Vanadinite — 251.9M / 30 days
| Material | Units / 30 days | Jita split | ISK / 30 days |

| Silicates | 25,083 |
400 | 10.0M |
| Vanadium | 100,331 |
2k | 241.8M |
Sperrylite — 748.6M / 30 days

Step 4 — gross
| Refined material (all ores) | Units / 30 days | ISK / 30 days |
|---|
| Platinum | 98,562 | 743.6M |
| Vanadium | 100,331 | 241.8M |
| Pyerite | 8,145,548 | 132.6M |
| Mexallon | 814,555 | 39.6M |
| Evaporite Deposits | 157,006 | 32.1M |
| Cobalt | 37,114 | 22.4M |
| Silicates | 25,083 | 10.0M |
| Gross | 1,222,159,747 ISK |
Step 5 — Magmatic Gas fuel
40 / hr × 730 hr
= 29,200 units × 2k
= 52,355,600 ISK / 30 days
Step 6 — floor
| Gross | 1,222,159,747 ISK |
| − Magmatic Gas fuel | −52,355,600 ISK |
| Model floor | 1,169,804,147 ISK / 30 days |
| Floor used by the auction |
1,169,804,147 ISK / month |
Step 7 — what a bidder pays
| Term length | 3 months |
| Minimum monthly bid | 1,169,804,147 ISK (the floor) |
| Prepaid to the alliance on winning |
bid × 3 — at the floor, 3,509,412,441 ISK |
| Viability floor |
300,000,000 ISK / month —
