Poopslayer78: Made explicit that the productivity bonus does not deplete an ore path faster. This wasn't obvious to me.

Mining productivity is a research that increases the productivity of [[mining drill]]s and [[pumpjack]]s by 10% per level. Unlike productivity from [[productivity module]]s, there are no downsides. Any ore that is produced by the productivity bonus is free, it does not deplete the amount of ore under the miner.
