Ever since the Mining barges were revamped, I have been (afk) mining quite a bit. There is something tranquil about mining and later on, selling ships you have build with rocks you mined yourself is quite satisfying. Not to mention the fact you can catch up with tv episodes you missed while doing so.
Shame the iceprices took such a dive. But I am using the ice to produce fuel blocks with PI farmed from the wormhole. If you sell these at places where you don’t have that many competitors, you can ask a bit more than Jita prices, but sales are a little slower.
Since there are quite a few miners about now, you have to study dot.lan a bit to find decent belts. It’s not uncommon to only see a few pieces of plag and veld left in a belt these days.
Happy mining all :).
The past few months I have been setting up shop in Hentogari. Still do my invention and selling those inventions in Sivala and Irjunen where the lvl 4 agents are (oops did I just give away a trade secret), usually on sunday where I fly the 14 odd jumps back and forth. Hento was just temporary I thought. There is a nice Ishukone agent there and I wanted to up my standings for them in order to use their R&D agents.
