wait a minute, since all basic ores are removed from the moons, than why would ppl still want to mine moon ores?

The cost in minerals, either from what you have been able to mine or forced to buy based on what will become inflated prices.  
You are simply trolling for the point of being an ass.

Yes, but that’s not the point here, is it?

It’d take about the same amount of time as it’s always had. The market will adjust and there will be different prices, but competition will keep everything affordable.

When you say we will get some replacement ores for some moons what range are we talking about? Would it just be new R4s or could we get R64s if we get uber lucky

Great, the minerals go up, and it becomes more valuable, so more people will go and start mining to take advantage of the higher prices.

Then the mineral supply starts growing again and the prices come back down once more. Some people think it’s not worth their time and move onto other activities.

It’s like the market has ebbs and flows!! WOW!

And people will dogpile hard and bring in more of their mining alts to take advantage of the skyrocketing prices.

Ok, how will it take the same amount of time when the resources you are mining are depleted. If there is less to mine it cannot take the same amount of time to mine now, as it took previously.

Seriously, dude, stop.

well you think that this is going to help eve out and that there will be a demand for the crappiest moon goo in the game and you even took out the trit out of them! for a person that has played since 2013 and before this really sucks!! if it gets to hard to make isk in this game to be able to plex my accounts then i will just not plex my accounts ! this ore change is stupid and ore should have different descibtions like moon goo does for example uncommon ore would be jet orhre ,Hedbergite Hemrphite,jaspet where Spodumain Crokite bistot Arkonor would be rare ore … ccp needs to realize that this beneifit is going to make low sec more money and screw the hi-sec-ers! And why would people need to use moon goo from high sec with crappy moon goo when it already is not really used it is going to be more in abundance so the price will go down duh!!! Athanors will be very useless with just one moon goo to pull and they all pull the worthless moon goo ! Watch and wait you just screwed high sec mining and industry !!

You cannot ever mine the same amount of minerals from normal belts… so the demand stays but the materials are less available… tell me how the prices stay the same idiot

but now the only way to obtain basic ores are only belts and ore anomalies, and lots of high sec corps are mainly relying moon mining. wont i affect the price?

Yeah that’s… kind of the whole point?  
Ore Anomalies give Ore.  
Moons give Moon Goo.  
Belts are entry level ore deposits that are primarily used to raise indices for IHUB upgrades.

People seem to forget there are 5 levels of Ore Anomalies that provide a ton of Ore already.

This is why you can’t let Spodbrain rot your mind. You get so content and suckling the teets of lazy mining that the thought of not being lazy is unfathomable.

the more plex on the market means that the lower the cost why not, but my main concern is the impact to manufacturing ships/moduels
