How the floor is calculated
8-GE2P VIII - Moon 15 · 8-GE2P · 8ET-D1
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

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
82 / 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 | 33.9% |
297,052 |
2,971 |
| Otavite | 29.2% |
255,792 |
2,558 |
| Coesite | 26.3% |
230,300 |
2,303 |
| Cobaltite | 10.6% |
92,856 |
929 |
Step 2 & 3 — reprocess each ore, then value the materials
per material:
portions × SDE yield × 90.6% × Jita split price
Vanadinite — 270.3M / 30 days
| Material | Units / 30 days | Jita split | ISK / 30 days |
| Silicates | 26,913 |
400 | 10.8M |
| Vanadium | 107,651 |
2k | 259.5M |
Otavite — 262.8M / 30 days
| Material | Units / 30 days | Jita split | ISK / 30 days |
| Atmospheric Gases | 23,175 |
166 | 3.8M |
| Cadmium | 92,699 |
3k | 259.0M |
Coesite — 162.7M / 30 days
| Material | Units / 30 days | Jita split | ISK / 30 days |
| Pyerite | 4,173,043 |
16 | 67.9M |
| Mexallon | 834,609 |
49 | 40.6M |
| Silicates | 135,624 |
400 | 54.2M |
Cobaltite — 20.3M / 30 days
| Material | Units / 30 days | Jita split | ISK / 30 days |
| Cobalt | 33,651 |
604 | 20.3M |
Step 4 — gross
| Refined material (all ores) | Units / 30 days | ISK / 30 days |
| Vanadium | 107,651 | 259.5M |
| Cadmium | 92,699 | 259.0M |
| Pyerite | 4,173,043 | 67.9M |
| Silicates | 162,537 | 65.0M |
| Mexallon | 834,609 | 40.6M |
| Cobalt | 33,651 | 20.3M |
| Atmospheric Gases | 23,175 | 3.8M |
| Gross | 716,107,976 ISK |
Step 5 — Magmatic Gas fuel
40 / hr × 730 hr
= 29,200 units × 2k
= 52,355,600 ISK / 30 days
Step 6 — floor
| Gross | 716,107,976 ISK |
| − Magmatic Gas fuel | −52,355,600 ISK |
| Model floor | 663,752,376 ISK / 30 days |
| Floor used by the auction |
663,752,376 ISK / month |
Step 7 — what a bidder pays
| Term length | 3 months |
| Minimum monthly bid | 663,752,376 ISK (the floor) |
| Prepaid to the alliance on winning |
bid × 3 — at the floor, 1,991,257,127 ISK |
| Viability floor |
300,000,000 ISK / month —
