| − | Ore is the basic material found in the various asteroid fields throughout EVE. In native form asteroid ores cannot be used, but must be refined into their constituent Minerals, which can then be used for ship and equipment manufacture.

| − | As a rule of thumb, the refinable value of an ore increases the nearer it's name is to 'A', but at the same time, the minimum units needed to refine and volume also increase. Since mining lasers work in m3 instead of ore units, and the volume of the higher end ores is up to 400 times that of the lowends, it's a good idea to check prices per m3. Currently, there is about a 10 fold difference in the amount one makes per m3 (and therefore, per time) on the best ores versus veldspar. Also, the more valuable an ore type, the further from Empire space you will need to travel to find it.

| − | The Ore can be found in asteroids of the same name and most asteroid ores can only be reprocessed in set minimum quantites.
| |
| − | Ore is harvested from Asteroids in an Asteroid belt by using Mining Lasers. This differs from Ice, which is harvested from Ice fields by using Ice Harvesters.

| − | Ore found in any higher security area is also found in lower security areas of that region/faction. Ore found in 0.0 space varies wildly from system to system. However, certain ores only appear in 0.0 systems.
