Veldspar is by far the best money-maker ANYWHERE in highsec and lowsec right now, so even 1.0 is just as good as 0.1. The only better income you could get is out in 0.0 and find one of the high-end ores... but you won't be able to go at it alone... "one PvP ship for protection" isn't going to cut it in 0.0 NPC-controlled space, and alliance-controlled space is off-limits unless you're a member of the alliance.

Originally by: TimMc Your joking right? *looks are market tab* **** thats alot more than I looked last time.
Sadly, no, I'm not joking. As potential ISK/hour from refined minerals, Veldspar right now is the best out of all lowsec and highsec ores combined.
The reasons are a bit complicated, but it's basically a combination between refineable mission loot drops and the new drone regions dropping the highend mineral prices (smaller recent changes rectified megacyte price a bit, but nowhere near its base value), while at the same time demand for minerals in general is still increasing, even if the capital ship market is suffering a minor setback even since the intention to nerf carriers was announced.
Last but not least, the other change : shuttles no longer sold by NPCs, so you can no longer get tritanium for 3.6 ISK anywhere you like, but still having OTHER refineables where you can get tritanium at 3.6 ISK per unit... it's just not anywhere you want, like it used to be. More of a psychological barrier rather than anything else, but still.
Unless they change the ore mineral composition, or they suddendly (and sharply) change the needed minerals for manufacture of items/ships, tritanium prices are bound to be the highest ones (when compared to the BASE value) for a long, long time. So... yeah... Veldspar it is. Soon enough, you won't even be able to find any soon after downtime, alongside whatever other ores hold a fair chunk of Tritanium.

Originally by: Jason Edwards um no it isn't. isk/m3 which m3 is directly related to how much you actually mine. Scordite is clearly better.
Oh really ? Mind doing the math for us to see ? And post what prices you ASSUMED for the refined minerals while you're at it.

Originally by: Jason Edwards already been done and posted newb.
Because I see 33.3 m^3 of Veldspar reprocessing into 1000 Tritanium, so around 3580 ISK... but it's 49.95 m^3 of Scordite into 833 Tritanium (*3.58 = 2982 ISK)and 416 Pyerite (*4.41 = 1834 ISK), so 4816 ISK
Veldspar -> 107.5 ISK / m^3 (10.75 ISK/unit) Scordite -> 96.41 ISK / m^3 (14.46 ISK/unit)
Might want to watch who you're calling "newb". That, or take a better look at the market. Either way, you were wrong.

Originally by: Jason Edwards My source provides an average.
So let me get this straight, you're purposely not using the best price you could get for it, but rather some cross-game average ?
Originally by: Jason Edwards You have no idea where this guy is.
He was asking where to go. Why would I care where he is ?
