Mining productivity is a research that increases the resource output of mining drills and pumpjacks by 10% per level. Unlike productivity from productivity modules, there are no downsides. Any ore that is produced by the productivity bonus is free, it does not deplete the resource under the miner.

Technology	Cost	Effects	Cumulative effect
1 Mining productivity 1	60 1 1 ✖ 250	10%	10%
2 Mining productivity 2	60 1 1 1 ✖ 500	10%	20%
3 Mining productivity 3	60 1 1 1 1 1 ✖ 1000	10%	30%
4-∞ Mining productivity 4-∞	60 1 1 1 1 1 1 ✖ 2500*(Level-3) (eg. 2500 for level 4, 5000 for level 5)	10% per level	30% + 10%*(Level-3)
