Oz, where in High sec space can I find some ice fields?

actee, ala, ignebaener, jakri, moro.

not subbed atm, but iirc they are .5 with a few ice belts each.
No one loves you.
They're just pretending to be nice. But they talk bad about you after you leave the room.
You're gonna die alone.

IIRC correctly there is an ice field in Juunigashi (?)
a couple of jumps out of Jita.

Although it is standard quality ice, can't recall
what it refines into either, ie whether it is nitrogen
or oxygen isotopes.

hope that helps.

:D

Not sure of all locations, but we have a small op from time to time in deninard, 4-5 jumps from oursulaert. its blue ice which give oxygen isotopes. Refine is around 300 isotopes per with a sell price in the 500 isk per or more range (market depending) you also get a very small amount of liquid ozone, heavy water and strontium clathrates. We do not have a corp office there, but can set one up if interested.

not reallly necessary since we are 6 jumps out from mies. However, I am interested in finding a place to refine this stuff to get a better refine ratio. :)

I refined 80 blue ice chunks just to see how things worked out there and I made 10 mill. Not exactly what I wanted out of that, so I am gonna wait for one of you guys to haul it out of there when I get a more significant amount so I can get a better refine.

Trying to remember the numbers, but I think its 300 oxygen isotopes per unit, at around 550-600 per unit in good sale system thats roughly 165k - 180 per unit in oxygen alone. So 800 units should have yielded 24k isotopes for roughly 14M plus the strontium, liquid ozone and heavy water for a net of around 18M give or take based on market. Regular ice is not as profitable as the glare crust in 0.3, but alot safer. The deeper into low sec, null sec you go, the more you make, just the nature of the beast. But considering the ice field will not require you to move from roid to roid, it does make a steady income, as boring as ice mining is. 100M for 5-6 hours of mining is not al that bad, for high sec at least.
