Hi all,
Just wanting to get my head round things again....
How much on 1 haul to mining field and back to base should i be getting on average ie isk?
Break down would be good
veldspar
ice
so and so forth
At the mo i'm hauling about 600k - 1 mill per run give or take exchange rates and contracts so and so forth. Am i doing anything wrong?? as looking around the pricing on ships have hiked up by alot!! It's going to take me years to get to where i want..... or where i would like to go if needed.
Cheers in advance for any feed back given
Keep on trucking!!

Are you solo? If so then yes, it would take you years. Mining, moreso than any other non-PvP feature of the game, takes multiple people to make profit. It's not unheard of for "Solo" miners to employ 3 accounts (2 hulk pilots + a maxed out Support orca pilot) to turn in a reasonable profit from mining. And this just takes into account pure mining, throw in manufacturing, t2 manufacturing, and trade (to sell your products) and you'll have a full fledged headache on your hands.
If you're willing to join and industry corp, you'd probably see more profit, as the overhead and logistics would be handled by them, so you'd be purely focused on churning out more rock. Also, depending on the corp, more lucrative minerals would be available to you (especially if they operate in Nullsec/WH space). Plus, a lot of the liabilty and cost of mining would be subsumed (hopefully) by your corp.

Also, if you're doing Ice, the Mackinaw is the ship for that.

If you're only working hisec, yeah somewhere along the way you messed up your calcs. Maybe misplaced a decimal point? I'm not quite sure how you possibly got 60 million isk/hr with you're calculations, especially solo. Most you can expect out of hisec is 5-10 million. And that's assuming you never over-cycle or waste cycle time on a almost-done rock.
I could see 60 mil if you're mining ark, but hisec mins? no way.

If you can pull in 2000 cubic meters per minute that's 120,000 per hour.
That's 43 million worth of arkonor
or 12.5 mil of Kernite, the best hisec ore ATM.
That's without stopping. I'm not sure if a solo hulk can pull 2k but with Orca bonus it can.
So theres no way in hell you could make 12mil an hour in a hulk in hisec. If you're pulling 4-5 you're doing great. Lol.

mining in a hulk without a hauler alt, I'm guessing empire 8 mill an hour. You have cargo extenders so that may help out a bit. I remember the hulk can rig to 18k cargo space if fitted that way.
If I was you, I'd seek out a good 0.0 mining corp and join up. They have the infastructure in place so all you have to do is mine. Someone else will be around to haul for you and you don't have to refine/sell the mins. The corp should be able to handle everything after you jettison the ore in space basically.
Mining arkanor with 1 hulk...I'd say roughly 15 mill an hour give or take? Its been a long time since I mined in 0.0 I used 3 accounts, 2 hulks and a iteron 5 hauler alt. I think I pulled 25-30 mill an hour with bistot/crockit (however you spell it)
If your going to mine for a living, you may as well get paid for your time.
