Posted on Feb 10, 2012 (Last edited on Feb 20, 2012) HistoryValley Prospector Co. was founded on the 10th of February 2012 by Walter Yorkshire after he had sold his previous business. His vision and goal was to provide the world with high quality Minerals and since then has extended into producing Raw Materials. The pricing system has changed constantly as Mr. Yorkshire adjusted to the foreign demands and early on scraped the quality based pricing system. Now it has moved on to the new pricing system dubbed DPI (Diamond Pricing Index). This new system means as the foreign demand for diamonds rises, so to does the mineral prices, as demand falls the same happens. Prices change on a day to day basis and will be adjusted as soon as I am able to do so. Current Prices (February 19, 2012) Bauxite: $105.97 Clay: $35.32 Coal: $56.52 Copper Ore: $154.14 Diamond: $15,414.24 Gold Ore: $770.71 Iron Ore: $21.19 Limestone: $21.19 Mineral: $7.06 Quartz: $35.32 Sapphire: $141.30 Silica Sand: $14.13 Silver Ore: $308.28 Titanium Ore: $211.95 Tungsten Ore: $847.78 Lumber: $127.97 Natural Gas: $2.39 Petroleum: $94.43 |

Posted on Feb 14, 2012 With the changes to how things are produced, I have added two more products. Sapphires and Quartz. They have been added to the list. As for when things will arrive on the market, the first few batches should arrive within the day.

Posted on Feb 14, 2012 Um, those "base prices" are twice the listed wholesale prices. So you're getting an extra 100% on top of the wholesale markup, plus a "quality bonus"?

Posted on Feb 14, 2012 Can you make gold bars or just gold ore? Are there any high research smelters?

Posted on Feb 14, 2012 @Mister DeathWould you rather me export them to Germany at 1.6 times the base price plus quality bonus? :P Twice base price is intended and I feel it is more than reasonable. @Chad Rudd Sadly I am selling just the gold ore, however AMBM is researching higher tech Gold and I can probably convince him to resell it on the B2B market. |

Posted on Feb 15, 2012 At 130% of wholesale, I'll be buying as much as I can from you.At 230%, I'm going to be opening up my own mine again. I know I'm not a huge market force or anything, I'm just sayin'. |

Posted on Feb 15, 2012 (Last edited on Feb 15, 2012) But what you are suggesting is that I sell it less for what I can export it for. All that will result in is somebody buying it up and exporting it themselves which would mean those who actually needed it won't get any. The very minimum I could theoretically sell it at is 1.6+quality percent and at that point I might as wel l export it as I can get the money back instantly. Remember I am not just providing minerals but minerals of at least quality 15 to get the equivilent you would need the time and money to get it to the same point. As an examp.le I have a total of 550m2 of Prospector R&D and it has taken me days to get all my mineral research to 15.Edit: I typed this on my phone, expect bad grammer/spelling |

Posted on Feb 15, 2012 I fully agree with Walter, you have to sell above the export values otherwise you might as well just export it instantly and get the money right there and then. Formula is (Wholesale*2*(1+(Quality/50))). Remember, quality adds to the price you can sell the final product for! Also, Gold bars coming up soon :) |

Posted on Feb 15, 2012 That looks easy enough, will do more proper calculations when I have time - remember I can only provide the raw materials, so titanium ore not Titanium bars etc... somebody else will have to take up the rest.

Posted on Feb 16, 2012 Resources have been withdrawn from the market due to the export changes, expect price revaluation due to increased demand from foreign countries.

Posted on Feb 16, 2012 (Last edited on Feb 16, 2012) garry, that would be impossible because: you dont got the money, 20k CFRP means a 25 days or more to make. so i dont think that will work since CFRP is around 300$ eachEdit: no company can make this amount daily, we need a lot more money and a high expansion size to produce a little more. |
