How the floor is calculated
0TKF-6 IX - Moon 1 · 0TKF-6 · YB7B-8
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 buy | 1.26B | −52.4M | 1.20B | 3.61B |
| Jita split (floor basis) | 1.28B | −52.4M | 1.23B | 3.70B |
| Jita sell | 1.31B | −52.4M | 1.26B | 3.78B |
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.
Inputs · from settings
| 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 | 37.0% | 324,120 | 3,241 |
| Bitumens | 33.4% | 292,365 | 2,924 |
| Sylvite | 29.6% | 259,515 | 2,595 |
Step 2 & 3 — reprocess each ore, then value the materials
per material: portions × SDE yield × 90.6% × Jita split price
Chromite — 668.0M / 30 days
| Material | Units / 30 days | Jita split | ISK / 30 days |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hydrocarbons | 29,365 | 443 | 13.0M |
| Chromium | 117,461 | 6k | 655.0M |
Bitumens — 386.4M / 30 days
| Material | Units / 30 days | Jita split | ISK / 30 days |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pyerite | 15,892,961 | 16 | 258.7M |
| Mexallon | 1,059,531 | 49 | 51.5M |
| Hydrocarbons | 172,174 | 443 | 76.2M |
Sylvite — 230.0M / 30 days
| Material | Units / 30 days | Jita split | ISK / 30 days |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pyerite | 9,404,824 | 16 | 153.1M |
| Mexallon | 940,482 | 49 | 45.7M |
| Evaporite Deposits | 152,828 | 204 | 31.2M |
Step 4 — gross
| Refined material (all ores) | Units / 30 days | ISK / 30 days |
|---|---|---|
| Chromium | 117,461 | 655.0M |
| Pyerite | 25,297,785 | 411.7M |
| Mexallon | 2,000,013 | 97.2M |
| Hydrocarbons | 201,539 | 89.2M |
| Evaporite Deposits | 152,828 | 31.2M |
| Gross | 1,284,413,215 ISK | |
Step 5 — Magmatic Gas fuel
40 / hr × 730 hr = 29,200 units × 2k = 52,355,600 ISK / 30 days
Step 6 — floor
| Gross | 1,284,413,215 ISK |
| − Magmatic Gas fuel | −52,355,600 ISK |
| Model floor | 1,232,057,615 ISK / 30 days |
| Floor used by the auction | 1,232,057,615 ISK / month |
Step 7 — what a bidder pays
| Term length | 3 months |
| Minimum monthly bid | 1,232,057,615 ISK (the floor) |
| Prepaid to the alliance on winning | bid × 3 — at the floor, 3,696,172,845 ISK |
| Viability floor | 300,000,000 ISK / month — clears it |
