Boulders will break up in all kind of splinters. An experienced miner can see its value from just examine the splinters texture. Than scoop the ones you are interested in. Or just scoop then all when you have storage room. After scooping the processor will start automatically when it contains something of value and in a few seconds it will have processed the ore and add whatever it contained to your cargo. During processing it will consume a small amount of energy. Splinters are processed one by one. When scooping up more than one, the others are placed in storage and processed when the first is ready. When there is not enough energy for processing, the splinters are pun in your hold in unprocessed form.
