It seems to me that Jaspet with the time of mining and the amount of space it takes in cargo (wich translates into time you spend on hauling) is worse then Kernite.
I mean the value of the minerals you get is only a factor in profitability ,the true value of ore in Eve can only be described by a money/time unit.
What do you thing?This is weird as Jaspet is found in lower sec then Kernite.

i think you missed another value wich is the value of an ore for the industry like ship production or equipment production ...

Yes. If you calculate minerals at NPC-price, then: Kernite is better than Jaspet Pyro is better than Plagi. (Value per volume)

Using my Indy of roughly 5000 cargo space and just selling the Nox for 256, you would make roughly 248K per load of Jaspet.
With the same figures and only selling Isogen, you would only get 192k for the load of Kernite.
But if you did the same thing with our favorite, Omber, you would get a little over 245k.
Here's what I used. With no skills involved, just using the normal ore content and market prices. I know that you would have more Trit, Pyrite, and Mex but didn't count them in.
For the Jaspet = (((5000/2)/500)*197)*256 For the Kernite = (((5000/1.2)/400)*289)*64 For the Omber = (((5000/0.6)/500*230)*64
So that is why I am Omber at the present time as all three would take me 2 hours to do, and dodging pirates add to the time. But with a low Sec Lvl, Omber is a little safer and more profitable.
And as for the other minerals, I just add them into the Corp's manufacturing bins. :)

Hey, why are you talking about the values when you put a random amount in corp???
This is how much each ore is worth per m^3. That is, multiply your cargospace with these numbers to figure out how much you get per run. 1. This is WITHOUT REFINING SKILL. 2. This is if you SELL EVERYTHING at NPC-PRICE.
These are the numbers: Omber: 51.06 Jaspet: 56.84 Kernite 58.43

Idaho I think you are missing the very important part in your calculations: the time it takes to mine Jaspet is much longer then Kernite.You only takes in your calculations the time you need to haul.
I would agree with Dalmen that of the 3: Kernite best Jaspet Omber

idaho is seeing the effects of rounding, or end points. If you are only mining 5000 m^3 (and then destroying the leftovers never to add to the leftovers) than you may well get more for 5000 space of jaspet, than kernite, because you won't be able to refine all of the kernite, and have some 'left over' for the next time.
So it depends on what you want to do.

Yep. My post is correct. And in the same way, Pyro is a little better than Plagi, because of less volume.
When comparing ore, you always have to compare the value in isk/volume. That's the same thing as isk/time, cause your mininglasers is volume/time and when shipping your ore its volume/time.

For me with an iteron MKII doing the hauling and 2 miner 1's and 2 basic mining drones I mine 92 Kern a minute.
This equates to around 392K an hour or so. (92 units a minute * 60 = 5520 units of Kern, divided by 400 13.8 top off my cargo for a full 14 and multiply by 28049 ISK
Omber is actually worth LESS per hour with that configuration, in fact until you get around the bistot ark level of mining, Kernite is the best mineral as far as pure NPC price cash goes.
Hedbergite and hemorphite are nearly worthless NPC CASH wise, same for jaspet ETC.
However if you need Zydrine, or megacite you NEED things like Gniess Spod ETc.

"Omber is actually worth LESS per hour with that configuration, in fact until you get around the bistot ark level of mining, Kernite is the best mineral as far as pure NPC price cash goes."
Darn. I've already wrote the ores in order according to NPC-prices... And of course Omber is worth less than Kernite.

Taking into account Refining amount, ore amount mined per minute, etc, all ores have a value greater than the last in the normal order except hemorphite, which is better than kernite, but worse than jaspet. -----------------------------------

Um, why don't you just use an ore calculator to get the EXACT value of the ore you are mining per cargo hold size, say for an indi cargo hold?
www.eve-i.com has a nice easy to use one :)

Hey, wait a minute. Take a look at the first letter of each of those ores. They're almost alphabetically ordered. Interesting.

you mine for isk? i did not do that after day one, mine for corp and jaspet is a good ore to mine. Its not the best, but the rocks are big and its easy to find so we got a good supply of nox

But if you got refining skill then jaspet will be worth more then kernite if you sell all at npc prises. ______________________ I am just a crazy cow |

No. It doesn't matter. Regardless of refining-skill, the value of the ore is in the order I've listed them...
Of course, if you're part of a corp it doesn't matter. Mostly mining scor and pyro myself...

http://militech.nord.is/orecalc/
Is my orecalc, which takes into account partial refines.
http://militech.nord.is/orecalc.pl is the Perl sourcecode.
"Proposed Enhanced Kernite" is related to another thread of mine. :)
It will give you ISK per hour defaulting at NPC price (which can be changed), and units of minerals per hour.
Kernite is better than Jaspet at NPC price. (Only slightly so). Given that selling any serious quantities of nox at NPC price is damn near impossible these days (And you though iso was bad???), Kernite is far better than Jaspet.
Pyrox is better than Plag, but it's somewhat easier to sell the minerals that result from plag. (Again, the nox issue) Pyrox is an excellent ore for those who are producing ships, as it gives a wide variety of minerals in pretty reasonable proportions. ---------------- Blue Screen of Death CEO Exodus Enterprises |

There are only two reasons to mine:
1) For material to build ships and equipment
2) For Megacyte (price ranges between 6k and 11k)
Anything else is practice.
