I have been trying to use these calculators etc but none of them work right because the ore type is always m3 difference. Veldspar is different from kernite so the amount per cycle is different. How can I figure out are making me what amount of money per cycle so I know what ores are making me the most isk for my time.

You are supposed to be doing it in m3. It varies depending on your skills, fleet setup etc.

Determine your m3, determine how much you are making.

Yeah, you always calculate ISK for mining based off of m3. The easiest way to do it, depending on how your calculations are laid out, is divide the ISK/refine batch by the volume of said batch. Veld gives you roundabouts 3.31k ISK/refine and the batch size is 33.3 m3/refine. 3310/33.3=100 ISK/m3 (no, the numbers aren't perfectly exact, but they're just rough example numbers).

Right click the laser in space > Mining Amount (Also add the crystal amount if using crystals). This will give you your M3 per 3 mins. As above use the link to work out what to mine for best ISK's.

Nice.

I think I did it right and thats an awesome chart btw :)

I got
Pyroxeres - 221,720
Kernite - 198,682
Veldspar - 193,459

So pyroxeres looks like my best bet in high sec for my location. Also I am guessing that 221,720 is isks per cycle? If thats true then im making that ever 2 min and 13 sec! with my tricked out hulk and orca to support it?

That's 5.9 mill isk a hour? hhmm that seems like somethings off lol math and I dont get along some times ;)

Work out your M3 per minute, then its totally simple to work out how much you get per hour/etc.

1 Can of Pyro is 3.2M according to the website.
