Ah and to add to this.... We have our corp paying very little for our members mining time spent. They could mine normal ore and make similar to if not more isk/hour than mining ice to sell to the corp.
That is the only reason it seems as if we are capable of making a profit.. Because we have to pay so little for ice that it does make ANY profit.

i agree.. it would need to be 4k per unit at least for the rarity 8+ metals... the gases could be cheaper as they will be mined for those who have extra harvesters

Well i have a buyer for my hafnium at 4k per unit.. If the pos acctually mines what i figure it should then i will be making a small profit.
Here is how much i figure the Small pos should mine.. 100 units every 4 hours. 6 cycles per day. 7 days per week. That is 4200 units per week..
When i deployed and onlined the harvester it was around 1.5 hours from downtime.. to try and make sure it did not cycle while the game was down.. But it does not seem like i am acctually going to get 4200 units by saterday.

I think there is a terrible mistake here ... 100 units mined per hour... that's easily 2200 units a day (assuming the slight bug which makes some moon raw material lost at DT) 2200units a day is 15400 units a week... at 3500isk a pop...its 53,900,000 isk a week...
you may want to do your math right before whinning that your POS is not profitable...
Hey tas, it is a small controll tower. 100 units every 4 hours, not every hour.

yeah, exactly.. so even if u get a great deal on the price of the fuel.. say use the 12m price for fuel. And 10.8-20m per week of total sales of hafnium. 10.8m if u sell hafnium at 3000 per unit. 20m if you sell hafnium at 4000 per unit.
you are still making at the MOST 8m profit per week. 8m is not worth the time spent in hauling goods to the POS and hauling the moon materials back to the empire market.
Its just not as profitable as mining veldspar.........................

the thing is that it is not more profitable than mining veldspar at any stage if your not able to do a reaction.
A large takes 4x as much hauling time as the small. if you mine veldspar 4x as long you still make more isk than you do with a large pos
