Have any new gems been introduced, and have gem values been verified?

The values of many things have changed. unsigned comment by The Architect

I personally verified the name, value, and location of every gem in the list when I imported this page from 40d. Everything that hasn't been verified has been marked with a "Verify" note, including the gem colors and a few commented-out sections at the top of the page. --Quietust 21:00, 6 April 2010 (UTC)

I have found gems to be more valuable than listed. For example, although pink tourmalines are listed at a value of 15 I am finding rough pink tourmalines valued at 45, and once cut they are valued at 75. Has anyone else found this? --Monk12 20:00, 11 April 2010

To obtain the value of an uncut gem, multiply the value of the gem as listed on the page by 3. Multiply by 5 to obtain basic cut values.

Glass value seems the same still. I tried to verify if crafts and large gems are still at the same rate, but I can't completely confirm yet. I got large gems, but no crafts. Roughly 1/3rd rate... I doubt anything has changed though. --Lightning4 02:29, 15 April 2010 (UTC)

A dwarf caravan sold me an "large native gold". Bug? --Niggy 19:58, 22 May 2010 (UTC)

I think I just got those by making rock crafts from gold --13:19, 6 July 2010 (UTC)

[edit]

Such crafts can easily reach hundreds, even thousands depending on the gem.

Perfect Gem[edit]

One of my dwarfs just created the artifact Nuralarom (Blindbeloved), a perfect gem encircled with bands of sard. It doesn't mention anywhere in the article that strange moods can lead to perfectly cut gems. Then again, should it mention it? Aussiemon 09:13, 22 August 2010 (UTC)

A "perfect gem" is just a special name for an artifact "large gem". I believe this is mentioned on the strange mood page, but if it isn't, it should be. --Quietust 14:25, 22 August 2010 (UTC)

Rough gems[edit]

Is it true what rough gems can be requested from dwarven caravans? I am never see such option. Also, I never see rough gems in trading caravans, only rough glass. 77.35.30.100 05:19, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
