Can someone please tell the isk per hour mining high sec ores such as veldspar, scordite and kernite? With max orca boost of course.

Also how many units/m3 per hour of each could a max skill and max orca boost hulk bring in?

If I remember correctly (it's been a while)..With 1 Hulk and an Orca boosting, you can fill the Orca up about 4 times per hour assuming it's fit for max cargo.

It's obviously not a good idea to fit an orca for maximum cargo hold. But go ahead if you wish. Roll

Regarding your quoted set-up of one Orca & one Hulk there is not a cat's chance in hell you would be able to fill the Orca four times in an hour. I'm not sure it would be possible to fill the Orca twice in an hour and actually with max cargo it may only get filled once per hour.

It's easy to work that out for yourself. Just mine each ore type for an hour and set aside those figures you mined. Then just times the amount of minerals, or ore if you don't refine, by the best price you work off. I'm a bit of a luddite so I prefer to do the maths myself than use third party programs. It will be more accurate then for your skill set etc.

Currently the prices per hour are roughly:

Veldspar : 28.6 mill ISK per hour.

Plagioclase : 24.2 mill ISK per hour.

Scordite : 21.8 mill ISK per hour.

I gave you the Plagioclase price because unless you only have Kernite available in your area Plagioclase is much better. Mining Kernite is inefficient given the weight ratio and m3 per hour. Others will disagree with me one this one. I will expect comments saying this. Smile

These calculations are a number of days old so if the tritanium peak has dropped back then Plagioclase may be top again.

* Prices are based on 'perfect' refine and zero take at a 50% NPC station. Mined ores are a random mixture of the 10% & 5% varieties only.

PS Regarding the second question I'm not going to do all the work for you. As I said it's not hard to work it out yourself. Smile

Yep, I just realized that I gave the wrong numbers yesterday and came here to correct it.. and of course see how many people called me stupid LOL!
Thanks for clarifying it! :)

I didn't have boosts, but my Procurer would bring in about 2226 m3 per 3 min filling my hold in 15 minutes for 4mil equaling 16mil/hour, I was mining Massive Scordite which has the highest price/m3 of highsec ores if you dont have kernite or pyroxerxes.

See my figures above. Disinformation is fun and I enjoy reading it but Scordite hasn't been better to mine than Plagioclase for quite a while. I'm talking a number of months now. The recent peak in the price of Tritanium has pushed Veldspar above Plagioclase for two or three weeks now.

It is simple to do and best to do your own maths as then you get results based on YOUR skillset, vessel type, and refining output. Looking at third party programs, in particular Cerlestes but others maybe as well, will not give you accurate results.

Look I don't know what backward fool taught you math but yield is measured in m3/time, and scordite has the best isk/m3. If you believe anything else you''re just using false prices or completely misunderstanding how the game works. I assume it's the latter since you talked about some stupid weight ratio, which has 0 bearing on any mining situation.
