I thought this did get answered for some reason. The rules for "Minerals" in
the MitS text concerning magical stuff exist, which is based somewhat on
weight (you have to read the game mechanics of Enchanting/Talismongering to
figure them all out). They may seem mild, but if you consider that the
further along in the processing (refining) of the gems you get, the better
the quality and the smaller the volume and the higher the price.
