Newcomer / Intro Did I find a bug in my refining??

I have my mining laser and a medium end refinery.

My question is this...lets say I have 3% Bauxite & 4% Gallite. I opt to keep the Gallite. I click on it to refine it, I hear it being refined & it displays at the bottom showing "Bauxite 3%" with an up arrow next to it. Above it shows "Bauxite REFINED". Great!
If I try to VENT the Gallite, both ores quickly show "REFINED" next to them then BAM...my 4% Gallite that was refined is back up at top and no where at the bottom any longer. I do it again...same thing. Am I doing something wrong?

I can do screenshots if someone needs to see what I am talking about.

Thanks!

FIXED: Yeah...think it was bugged or something. I exited out of the game altogether. Even the launcher. Came back in & found 14% of some other ore sitting in there. I vented it and started over. Worked great now!

Heading over to report this.

damn it, Id love to mine.... the gameplay seems funny and if u can get professional at it it would be fun for me.....
but yeah today I wasted 4 hours mining for 3000 credits and lost a cobra wich I couldnt refund completeley after crashing into a asteroid wich wasnt there before.... (like clipping effects, it must have been there all the time but was invisible and then boooom goes my ship and after explode this stupid rock "decloacked")
yeah and the OP´s problem seems to happen every 20 minutes so I must leave the game ....
just for every second refined unit disapearing to nowhere instead of adding into my cargo after 100% ....
Frontier, your way u designed the mining gameplay is really nice, but get this stupid thing working plz....
as the standings are pure chaos (federation hostile, did only pro fed-hauling missions no smuggling or such! and now I moved to alliance-space since a week, and desperatly look who Im hauling for, whats going on? Alliance doesnt like me either..... so as Im never going to sell slaves, I never will join the empire.... bountyhunting? just more mess with standings.... what else is left there if even things like mining are broken?
dont get me wrong, I love the game its so addictive as no game before, but its just so broken, in every corner hides a huge bug.... this is making pretty frustrated and agressive!
I mean it cant be that hard to keep stuff in cargo wich allready is 100% refined? also it cant be that hard to find the correct line in code to solve those stupid refinery problem as stated by OP.....
so last word, this game is beautifull and addictive as cocaine must be, but if such basic stuff like mining and propper standing-reputation-system dont work I wont waste my time anylonger on it and this would be a pitty cuz when I say "flock this" I wont turn back anymore....
plz frontier dont ruin this experience for me with doing nothing.....
(anyways since release was one single patch.... I mean yeah right u guys have christmas too.... but cmmon.... release is now more than two weeks ago.... fix this crap!!!!

@OP: guys like u must be worth their weigth in gold =) editing the answer to an own started thread is golden =) thx for doing so!

Yeah, the game was rushed out for the Christmas Business and for holding in the Release Year's sake,
although it was not entirely ready yet. Too much was added in in the last weeks before release as it had to be tested and addressed.
The Beta phase was an Alpha Phase and the Gamma, which was only 3 Weeks, was the real Beta phase, although they called it other.
I thought in September / November it may be ready to release in March. And probably it will be somewhat bug free and balanced then.
Sadly, a lot of players will be gone by then i think and may not be turning back unless the Planetary Landing Module will be released.
But that's at least another year ahead i think. Well, we will see.
