This is my Factorio Ratio storage. Located within this folder will be lists of important ratios to remember and apply to my Factorio playthrough.

Refer to the Ores page linked below to see the rates at which the different ores are produced depending on the tier of drill, as well as how many drills of each tier are required to fully saturate each tier of belt.
