How the floor is calculated
P4-3TJ VIII - Moon 23 · P4-3TJ · 9NP-KR
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
259 / 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) |
| Carnotite | 32.6% |
285,635 |
2,856 |
| Cinnabar | 29.8% |
260,934 |
2,609 |
| Coesite | 19.6% |
171,591 |
1,716 |
| Cobaltite | 18.0% |
157,839 |
1,578 |
Step 2 & 3 — reprocess each ore, then value the materials
per material:
portions × SDE yield × 90.6% × Jita split price
Carnotite — 1.65B / 30 days
| Material | Units / 30 days | Jita split | ISK / 30 days |
| Atmospheric Gases | 38,818 |

Cobaltite — 34.6M / 30 days
| Material | Units / 30 days | Jita split | ISK / 30 days |
| Cobalt | 57,201 |
604 | 34.6M |
Step 4 — gross
| Refined material (all ores) | Units / 30 days | ISK / 30 days |
| Technetium | 129,393 | 1.63B |
| Mercury | 118,203 | 428.1M |
| Pyerite | 3,109,233 | 50.6M |
| Cobalt | 83,080 | 50.2M |
| Silicates | 101,050 | 40.4M |
| Tungsten | 23,641 | 30.3M |
| Mexallon | 621,847 | 30.2M |
| Evaporite Deposits | 35,461 | 7.2M |
| Atmospheric Gases | 38,818 | 6.4M |
| Gross | 2,271,945,961 ISK |
Step 5 — Magmatic Gas fuel
40 / hr × 730 hr
= 29,200 units × 2k
= 52,355,600 ISK / 30 days
Step 6 — floor
| Gross | 2,271,945,961 ISK |
| − Magmatic Gas fuel | −52,355,600 ISK |
| Model floor | 2,219,590,361 ISK / 30 days |
| Floor used by the auction |
2,219,590,361 ISK / month |
Step 7 — what a bidder pays
| Term length | 3 months |
| Minimum monthly bid | 2,219,590,361 ISK (the floor) |
| Prepaid to the alliance on winning |
bid × 3 — at the floor, 6,658,771,082 ISK |
| Viability floor |
300,000,000 ISK / month —
