'''Reprocessing''' (also known as '''refining''') ~~is a miner’s second best friend, the first being powerful mining lasers. Reprocessing~~ allows a ~~miner~~ to refine their raw ore into usable minerals that can be sold or used for personal production. However, it is unlikely that new players' skill sets will allow for the efficient use of a reprocessing plant, and large portions of the refined minerals will be lost as ‘waste’, so new ~~miners~~ may find it more profitable to sell the raw ore they mine rather than refining it.

In New Eden there are two types or reprocessing equipment: equipment owned by NPC corporations ~~and~~ equipment owned by player corporations.

In New Eden there are two types of reprocessing equipment:

* equipment owned by NPC corporations

* equipment owned by player corporations

If an NPC station is capable of reprocessing your materials, then its equipment will have an efficiency rating between 30% and 50% (you can search for stations with 50% reprocessing efficiency by criteria, for example npc-corp or solar system, at [http://eve-online.itemdrop.net/eve_db/universe/station_search/ Station search page]). Obviously using a station with 50% equipment is better so pilots should take care when choosing a reprocessing station and check this value before use. (You can use third-party map tools like [https://evemaps.dotlan.net/ DOTLAN] to quickly check this)
