How the floor is calculated
8-YNBE IX - Moon 7 · 8-YNBE · 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

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
337 / 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) |
| Ytterbite | 42.2% |
369,972 |
3,700 |
| Cobaltite | 22.1% |
193,177 |
1,932 |
| Cinnabar | 19.4% |
170,049 |
1,700 |
| Sperrylite | 16.3% |
142,802 |
1,428 |
Step 2 & 3 — reprocess each ore, then value the materials
per material:
portions × SDE yield × 90.6% × Jita split price
Ytterbite — 2.22B / 30 days

Step 4 — gross
| Refined material (all ores) | Units / 30 days | ISK / 30 days |
| Thulium | 73,743 | 2.05B |
| Platinum | 51,752 | 390.4M |
| Mercury | 77,032 | 279.0M |
| Cadmium | 33,519 | 93.6M |
| Cobalt | 70,007 | 42.3M |
| Titanium | 67,039 | 42.1M |
| Silicates | 67,039 | 26.8M |
| Tungsten | 15,406 | 19.7M |
| Evaporite Deposits | 36,047 | 7.4M |
| Gross | 2,956,229,385 ISK |
Step 5 — Magmatic Gas fuel
40 / hr × 730 hr
= 29,200 units × 2k
= 52,355,600 ISK / 30 days
Step 6 — floor
| Gross | 2,956,229,385 ISK |
| − Magmatic Gas fuel | −52,355,600 ISK |
| Model floor | 2,903,873,785 ISK / 30 days |
| Floor used by the auction |
2,903,873,785 ISK / month |
Step 7 — what a bidder pays
| Term length | 3 months |
| Minimum monthly bid | 2,903,873,785 ISK (the floor) |
| Prepaid to the alliance on winning |
bid × 3 — at the floor, 8,711,621,355 ISK |
| Viability floor |
300,000,000 ISK / month —
