Mining crystals are special consumables fitted to Tech II mining harvesters and Deep Core mining lasers to massively increase the yield of these mining modules, with certain drawbacks depending on the type of crystal used.

Crystal compatibility

Following the release of Patch 19.11, mining crystals in EVE were fundamentally changed. Prior to Patch 19.11, every ore had its own unique Tech I and II crystal. Now, standard ores are separated into 6 "tiers" with each Tier having 3 types of crystals, further divided into their Tech I and II variants.
