I know i need Platinum to make Hexite Caesium to make Solerium Titanium to make Titanium Chromide
And the moon in question doesnt have a secondary metal. So is it pointless.. Perhaps sell it on its own ?

a.) stockpile it for posterity b.) buy somethig to mix with it from someone else and stick that into a silo prior to a reactor c.) sell it straight d.) find another moon, and haul the Chromium there (or vice versa) for reacting
The simple reaction chain in this case goes (silo + moon harvester) => reactor => silo ----------------------------------
Industrialist. I build it. You buy it. You break it and buy another one. Market domination through ingue ferrogue. (I did this and could have stopped it.) |

Edited by: Heloise ChateauBriande on 08/02/2007 22:47:55 I put up a small POS (mostly for fun) and am mining chromium. The chromium basically pays for the fuel costs of my small tower and I'm making a very small profit every month. At the rate the chromium is selling it will take more than a year to pay off my investment in the small tower. However I have begun bargain hunting for fuels and this is going to lower my operating costs a tad. I still wouldn't bother to do this just for the tiny profit. However I have put up a Laboratory and am getting some use out of the research slots. So it is worthwhile.
Honestly... unless you have found a rather rare moon mineral then just moon mining is going to be a lot of work for very little return. Once you have optimized your business model you will (probably) be barely profitable. However you are also likely to have contract buyers flake on you, chromium sit on the market unsold, etc. This is a big headache for little ISK. HOWEVER you CAN make decent ISK if you are running reactions. So a medium tower and a small tower that between them mine 2 moons and run a simple reaction is going to pay for itself and possibly turn a tidy profit. Depends upon which minerals and which reaction but MOSTLY these reactions will pay for the towers and make some ISK for you.
Good luck.

Eh i'd say make sure the POS does something else you want.. like research or refine. The reaction and mining should just be a little bonus to help offset fuel...
