There is no point arguing how this can lead to easy mithril for newbies who have no idea about what it is, but more so if it makes the game more balanced, or more biased to a certain playstyle (Nomad), which it doesn't. Anyway, if a noob were to have a piece of mithril, someone asking him for it isn't likely as the won't know he has it (unless he shouts in chat), and why would said noob just give it away anyway?

Also, why is gold so common whereas IRL it is one of the rarest naturally forming metal in the earth's crust. If there were only 4 veins it wouldnt matter. Since no one ever really uses gold, it shouldn't matter too much if you put them on spire and goldrock
