GOLD DIGGERS

Mission

To find gold! Well, first silver, then gold. Then we build a public mine on it. Then we're done and the guild can disband.

UPDATE: Gold found: 1441,1795

We are in the process of setting up a gem cutting school! We'll be located at 1345, -1052 in 7L, which is just east of the University of Body. As soon as Test of the Bijou is open, tables will be set up. Players can practice all 42 gem cuts and learn to recognize the flaws needed and how they're located next to each other. Updated guides will also be available.

Notes

Guild hall: Seven Lakes near chariot, 1381,-1152

Perception Phoenix: CCR, -562, 6830

Perception 7 is sufficient to find Silver, but not for Magnesium (which needs 8). So if you find something unrecognized with 8+ perception, try and get a new meal that gives you 7 perception, or find someone else who can dowse with that perception. This will save having to map magnesium veins.

Process

We are walking north-south along bands separated from one another by 500 coords. Every 20 coords we dowse. The results are posted to the wiki, and someone (probably Kanixihk) will take care of organizing the data so it can be visualized.

All dowsing should be done with at least 7 perception, which is what is needed to find silver. Food will be provided.

Do not post dowsing data unless you are positive that there is no Silver or Gold. Remember that all information that is posted on the wiki is public, and can be used by ANYONE! If you are not sure how to identify Silver or Gold and you don't want to sink a mine, please chat the guild or private chat someone you trust to help you identify the vein.

Details

Select a stretch that has not already been covered from the list in the Ranges subsection under Data, below.

Update the list immediately with a note "(in progress)" so that no one else starts doing the same stretch you're doing.

When you have completed the stretch, remove the "(in progress)" note.

Post your results to this page. We are interested in all findings, so you're encouraged to do "/copy" in main periodically, and dump that into an editor, or directly onto the wiki page. Failing that, what you ABSOLUTELY MUST record is the range covered, and any "unrecognized" metal veins found.

But do not record the unrecognized veins here unless they've been confirmed not to be silver, as per the note in the previous section.
