This page should be updated due to game changes.
Reason: See note at #Refinery Output
This article should be cleaned up or improved.
The reason is: Check how they changed over the years and how are they different from Upwell structures ArinBot (talk) 07:05, 25 July 2023 (UTC)

A POS Refinery Array will only handle a single ore at a time, so it is best to create batches of ores and only run complete batches.

Refinery Type Max Volume Cycle Time Yield Tower
Refinery 40,000 m3 60 minutes 35% Small
Medium Intensive Refinery 20,000 m3 90 minutes 75% Medium
Intensive Refinery 200,000 m3 180 minutes 75% Large


The Intensive Refinery is best for serious miners, but the powergrid and CPU use requires that you have a Large POS Tower to support it. The regular Refinery should be avoided as 65% of the value of the ore is lost by using it.

Refinery Input

This is a list of the various ores and details of their volume and how many units will fit into a Intensive Refining Array.

Low End Ores

Ore Volume (m3) Batch Quantity
Veldspar 0.1 2,000,000
Scordite 0.15 1,333,333
Pyroxeres 0.3 666,666
Plagioclase 0.35 571,428
Omber 0.6 333,333
Kernite 1.2 166,666
Jaspet 2 100,000
Hemorphite 3 66,666
Hedbergite 3 66,666

High-End Ores

Ore Volume (m3) Batch Quantity
Gneiss 5 40,000
Dark Ochre 8 25,000
Spodumain 16 12,500
Crokite 16 12,500
Bistot 16 12,500
Arkonor 16 12,500
Mercoxit 40 5,000

Refinery Output

This is a break down of the output from refining a single batch (This assumes efficiency is capped out at 75%)

Icon information square.png Note: This image needs to be updated. For example, Arkonor ore refines to Tritanium, Mexallon, and Megacyte. It no longer produces Zydrine.

Look at this link for an updated Ore Chart.
