Hi, im pretty new to eve my clan plays it so i got an IMICUS with 2 EP-S mining lasers. What would be the most profitable thing for me to mine? Scandite seems it but im not sure, also how do i find rarer minerals the only minerals i ever see are Ves (the basic one that makes tritanium) Scandite (Another basic one) Placioglase
And all the differant forms of the above ones. What is the next best step for me to take?

Edited by: Aitrus on 24/12/2004 17:12:51 Scordite may be basic, but it's a great money maker for a new player. It's the best source of pyerite, which is in high demand usually.
The next ore you would shoot for is Kernite. However, don't think you'll be able to mine it safely without losing your ship to NPC's as its only found in 0.6 space and lower. I would wait until you're in a cruiser and can defend yourself while mining, or get a friend to cover you.

Since you're still in a frigate, I would recommend staying in 0.7 space or higher and mine Scordite. Its pretty profitable but doesn't seem to last long. Plagiocase and omber are also pretty good, but not as profitable as Scordite. I would say the next step would be getting in a cruiser, probably a thorax with 8 heavy drones, and venture down to 0.5, maybe even 0.4 however you REALLY have to keep an eye on local. In 0.4 and below, you can find Jaspet, which yields the really profitable Nocxium mineral.

at start if you dont have a hauler and mine in emp i whould get a hauler to mine in sure you will only have 1 laser but all does trips you will have to make will even that up easy me thinks (if mining in a frig) dont forget ore thifes!
1.0 to 0.8 contains veld plag and scord (here you can mine safely from rats 0.7 contains veld plag and scord (here you find very easy rats 0.6 you can add omber and kernite (little bit tuffer rats for a new player i whould test some first) lower down to 0.0 you can add jaspet (wait with this systems :) ) 0.0 here you find the high end ores bistot arknor etc etc tho bist ark etc are not comon ores here you need to search for them (bad ass rats the deaper you get in to 0.0 the harder rats)

hehe, yeah, i made most of my starting money mining scordite in my bantam :D i just realised, when i mine (not too often anymore), i mine in an 0.2 system, i do it alone and unarmed, but not many people are crazy enough to pull it off (lots and lots of running and asking people to kill rats involved), now i fly around in my raven, earning money by watching the lovely torpedo explosions ^^
so really, you should never listen to my advice (this ALWAYS applies, unless you're a raving loony)

Press F10 to open the map, then click in the world map control panel on "display settings", then "stars", then under color stars by: "security rating", it's the second button.
To further tweak your map: Under "display settings", again in your world map control panel, click on "Lines", then select "all lines". This way you can plan routes easily ahead!
Before you enter security space lower than 0.5, be advised that you might encounter hard npc pirates at the gates and in the belts - and real player pirates, who are even more badass.
Good profit & Have fun

A while ago I figured out which ores yield the most isk per m3. The best ores to mine depend on the market and demand for the different minerals. In the Sinq Liason and Essence regions a month ago I found: Hedbergite > Hemorphite > Jaspet > Scordite > Pyroxeres > Omber > Kernite > Veldspar > Plagioclase
These ores can all be found in 0.1 and higher. Scordite is simply the best thing to mine in 0.5 and above. I haven't bothered to check prices since then since I'm lazy. Note that some of these ores will sell for much more if you refine them before you sell. You just have to check yourself to see.
For your imicus I'd suggest staying in 0.9 and mining scordite. I suggest that you should aim for a Thorax cruiser. Using drones to defend yourself, you can mine in 0.4 and below. Just be sure to watch the local channel for people pirates. If you want to train for Amarr cruisers get a Maller, for Minmatar get a Scythe, and for Caldari get a Osprey.
It's also worth learning how to set sell orders so you can name your own price. ````````````` _ |\_ ````````````` \` oo\ ````````_____/ =__Y= `````` /` `````` ) `_``` / ` , ``` \/\_.(\_/) ((____| `` )_--\ \_-`(x.x) `------'`------` `--` (> <) Kitty pwns Bunny! |
