13/4/13 doesn't mean you get much more minerals, but you get your minerals quicker.


May I say that you are wrong, well number of digged ore is
(mineff/10)*(num_of_mines)*(min_concetration/100), which means the reslt is the same if (mineff 25 and nummines 5 ) and (nummines 25 and mineff 5) but mineral concetrations are droping faster if you have more mines operating on planet.

Also you can read more about it in help file, also take a look to my testbed http://alas.matf.bg.ac.yu/~mr97209/mineff.zip race with high min eff did not reduced min concetration to 1 and have more minerals.

Calculating the Rate of Reduction

The number of mine years it will take to reduce the concentration by 1 can be approximated by dividing 12,5
00 by the current mineral concentration. Mine years is one mine per year: if you are operating 50 mines per
year on a planet, that equates to 50 mine years.

The decrease in concentration is solely related to the number of mines you have and the number of years the
y've been in operation. For two players with the same number of mines operating over the same number of yea
rs, the decrease in concentration will be the same for each.

Mineral Concentration and Player Efficiency

The rate of concentration reduction is not related to mining efficiency--the player who is more efficient a
t extraction will mine more minerals. When the concentration reaches 1 on your planet and an opponent's pla
net, the player who has the more mines but is not as efficient can do as well as a very efficient player wh
o is operating fewer mines.

To learn how many colonists you need to operate a mine and how efficient the mine is at extraction, choose
the View (Race) menu item, and turn to page 5 of the View Race dialog.
