About this converter
EVE ore volumes run 0.1 to 40 cubic meters per unit. Veldspar sits at 0.1, Scordite 0.15, Pyroxeres 0.3, Plagioclase 0.35, Omber 0.6 and Kernite 1.2. Jaspet doubles Kernite at 2. Hemorphite and Hedbergite tie at 3. Gneiss runs 5, Dark Ochre 8 and the nullsec set ties at 16: Crokite, Spodumain, Arkonor and Bistot. Mercoxit tops the table at 40 as the only morphite source. One Mercoxit unit fills the hold of 400 Veldspar. Every figure here is the EVE University game data volume.
How to use it
Pick two ores and a unit in the top row. The three boxes below stay linked. Change any box and the other two update. Try 1 Mercoxit against Veldspar to see the 40 versus 0.1 gap. All rows are single unit volumes.
Values are raw ore unit volumes with compressed variants noted but not rowed: compressed Veldspar is 0.001 per unit. Refining batches and mineral yields ride in sources where they sharpen a row. Abyssal and sov hub ores use the same volume bands with selected rows noted. Hold math decides trips: a Venture bay holds 5000 m3, which fits 50000 Veldspar or 125 Mercoxit.
FAQ
What is the smallest ore?
Veldspar at 0.1 m3 per unit. Scordite follows at 0.15.

Yes. Compressed Veldspar is 0.001 m3 per unit. Compressed rows belong to industry tables, not this volume page.
Which nullsec ores tie?
Crokite, Spodumain, Arkonor and Bistot all sit at 16 m3. Dark Ochre at 8 and Gneiss at 5 run smaller.
