Topic: EP For mining

The latest article about EP says:

Mining & harvesting: similar to rare materials, you have a small chance to receive EP while your gathering modules are working. The chance is divided with the number of active modules, so it doesn't matter how many you are using. On average, this means about 1 EP per minute.

"while gathering modules are working" - this means it's simply time, or someting else?

I've thought is the chance for every new cycle, but then i've gathered the statistics. For 3 hours of non-stop mining, with 2 characters:
(Scarab)Module 1:
Cycle time: 6.37 (-)
Mining amount increase: 35.16% (-)
EP gained: 182 times, avg every 58 sec. (+)
------------
(Riveler)Module 2:
Cycle time: 3.82 (+)
Mining amount increase: 77.02% (+)
EP gained: 173 times, avg every 61 sec. (-)
------------
I suppose the diminishing returns affects the amount but not the chance.
Riveler makes EP slower in this case. But that's probably just the "noise", so there's actually no any difference, the dice is rolls equally for everyone who have at least one module active?

It was designed to work like this, so there shouldn't be any difference in the long run.
