That's roughly 8 million ISK/hour and it really doesn't matter which ore you are mining. You need to divide the price of the ore by the m3/unit to get a normalized price. Usually the best ore to mine is Scordite. You can improve this with skills and boosts. I was averaging 6 loads per hour ice mining in a high skill Skiff with Orca boosts - that worked out to about 18 million ISK/hour at the time - not sure what ice is worth these days. It doesn't get much better than that in highsec. In low/null you can get more powerful boosts from a Rorqual.
For me, the key is multitasking. I can do most industrial activities sitting in a mining barge, just as easily as sitting in a station. PI, research, manufacturing, whatever. It's an excellent way to earn a little more ISK while doing something else on the computer if you have a spare monitor. As a manufacturer, I use the minerals from the ore I mine - which saves me the time and effort of buying them and hauling them to my base. Thanks for the awesome info! I wasn't using a mining laser upgrade. I'm using a damage control and Micro Auxiliary Core so that I can have enough power for two strip miners. So I guess I should do the mining upgrade instead of having two strip miners. From what I've read it seems ice mining is where it's at when it comes to Money. Also, don't forget to purchase a New Order mining permit. It's illegal to mine in James 315 high sec space without one. http://www.minerbumping.com/p/the-code.html
As long as you have a valid permit and follow the Code you'll have a long, prosperous and legal mining career. Fly safe. G
For any prospective miners here who may not know any better, this is a scam, just like isk doubling or hangar clearout contracts, any isk you send to code is isk spent to gank you, nothing else.
