Can anyone recommend a good place to mine for gems?
Hey guys, just wanted to ask if anyone knows of a mine to go to that has the most possible outcome to mine for gems. I've just recently got into alchemy and the only place I know where to mine is the one near Galmair. I'm not sure where any others are.

1 ) it make no sense to make "dust" from gems ....
2 ) it is cheaper to buy the dust
2 ) it is cheaper to buy the dust

Not to be rude but that doesn't really answer my question.
My character stresses about wasting her money on items that she can easily forage herself and the fact that gem powder cost about over 15 silver doesn't make it cheap for her when she doesn't make a lot of money to start with.

1 ) ok .... there is allways a chance to get a gem when mining ....
2 ) i think the best mine is on the Pauldron shoulder (?) but there are a lot of monsters there
3 ) second mine is the glitter mine i think (( also a little bit dangerous ))..... --> try to sell the diamonds you will find there ... most finesmithes are looking for diamonds
4 ) think the Galmair mines have a shorter way than the Cadomyrian mines but there should be no difference for the gem output
p.s. may be you can find a sponsor to start your carrier as an alchemist

As a beginning alchemist the powders you will use first are amethyst and Ruby. Ameythts are found most prominently in the coal stones in Galmair in my opinion. Rubies are found in the iron stones in Galmair.

Its all in the code! Which you can look up if you have the muse, with the game being open source and stuff.
The mining.lua- file is of interest to us in regard to your question. -->Link<--
The truly interesting section is the following:

Mining stones, ore, and gem output will all be things reworked as we implement the crafting milestone II. We even have new graphics for the mining rocks to come. Be patient we are getting to it!
