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.

Asteroid Ores

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.

Ores of a different racial type and/or lower security status than the system you are in can be found in gravimetric sites using scanner probes.

Each ore type has 3 variations, a standard variation and two "named" variations, with 5% and 10% increased yield each.

Roid Grid

Veldspar

Veldspar is one of two types of ore found in all racial space from 1.0 security down. It yields tritanium only, but in large quantities.

  • Size per unit: 0.1 m3
  • Number to refine: 333
  • Racial space: All
  • Security status: 1.0

Yields:

Standard

  • 1000 Tritanium

Concentrated (+5%)

  • 1050 Tritanium

Dense (+10%)

  • 1100 Tritanium

Scordite

Scordite is the second ore type found in all racial space from 1.0 security downwards. It yields Tritanium and Pyerite.

  • Size per unit: 0.15m3
  • Number to refine: 333
  • Racial space: All
  • Security status: 1.0

Yields:

Standard

  • 833 Tritanium
  • 416 Pyerite

Condensed (+5%)

  • 875 Tritanium
  • 437 Pyerite

Massive (+10%)

  • 916 Tritanium
  • 458 Pyerite

Plagioclase

Plagioclase is usually in the top-two hisec ores in terms of value per m3 and is therefore typically highly coveted.

  • Size per unit: 0.35 m3
  • Number to refine: 333
  • Racial space: Minmatar, Gallente, Caldari
  • Security status: 0.9 (0.7 for Caldari)

Yields:

Standard

  • 256 Tritanium
  • 512 Pyerite
  • 256 Mexallon

Azure (+5%)

  • 269 Tritanium
  • 538 Pyerite
  • 269 Mexallon

Rich (+10%)

  • 282 Tritanium
  • 563 Pyerite
  • 282 Mexallon

Pyroxeres

  • Size per unit: 0.3 m3
  • Number to refine: 333
  • Racial space: Amarr, Caldari
  • Security status: 0.9

Yields:

Standard

  • 844 Tritanium
  • 59 Pyerite
  • 120 Mexallon
  • 11 Nocxium

Solid (+5%)

  • 886 Tritanium
  • 62 Pyerite
  • 126 Mexallon
  • 12 Nocxium

Viscous (+10%)

  • 928 Tritanium

Kernite

  • Size per unit: 1.2 m3
  • Number to refine: 400
  • Racial space: Amarr, Caldari, Minmatar

Luminous (+5%) 405 Tritanium 812 Mexallon 405 Isogen Fiery (+10%)

  • 425 Tritanium
  • 850 Mexallon
  • 425 Isogen

Omber

Omber is in fact one of the least worthy ores per m3 of mined volume, and usually appears in the bottom 2 ores of value per m3. It is only typically worth mining if you need isogen for manufacturing.

  • Size per unit: 0.6 m3
  • Number to refine: 500
  • Racial space: Minmatar, Gallente
  • Security status: 0.7

Yields:

Standard 307 Tritanium 123 Pyerite 307 Isogen Silvery (+5%) 322 Tritanium 129 Pyerite 322 Isogen Golden (+10%) 338 Tritanium 135 Pyerite 338 Isogen
