Ok, here's the deal. Myself and a few LS mates mine fairly regularly, and the absolute only place to get platinum is in Palborough Mines. I strongly believe that your chances of getting platinum are highest on Lightsday, as my friend has gotten 3-4 in one run (about 4 stacks of axes) and I've pulled up 2 on one Lightsday. Other days I'm lucky to get one. To support this theory is the fact that to get platinum nuggets from gardening, you need to plant on lightsday, and feed the cuttings light crystals. Each ore corresponds to a specific element, for instance, mythril (also only found in Palborough, sells for 1.2-1.4k) can be found primarily on ice day, and some on other days, but somewhat rarely. I've pulled up 4 mythrils in a row on ice day, after going through nearly 2 stacks of axes on windsday, breaking alot and pulling a few Iron/zinc, and lots of pebbles, copper and tin. This is just my mining insight, take it as you want.

Are the Mythril Seams you see in Palborough Mining Points?

That's all I've actually seen there. Are they on the upper levels mostly, or all around?

Nope... those seems are used to get Mythril Dust, which is used for a quest, I believe. Didn't find this out until I had wasted entirely too many pickaxes and came out with lots and lots of dust.
Anyway, as for mining points, just keep looking. If the area has a high miner rate, it can take a while, but then again, it seems many aspects of this game are built around spending way too much time waiting for stuff :)

are you sure it's platinum? if you didn't get it through mining in Palborough then you didn't get it through mining, simple as that.

Maybe just because mining is so popular on my server, but there are 25+ Platinums on sale in Jeuno on Caitsith server. They are selling for only 28k.

Does anyone know where one can mine a chunk of orichalcum ore? They sell for 50k on my server. Only 3 on sale o.O

all mining locations in palaborough have the potential to give this ore. it's random, and this is what you're least likely to get.

Just buy 3-4 stacks of Pickaxes, and if you're a high enough level that they won't agro, drop all armor/un-needed items. Then just spend a day or two mining. My friend said it took awhile, but he came out about 350k richer from mining in there. It wasn't just one trip, mind you.)

If you are a decent level, just take what you might need to survive. Weapon and such. At level 30 , the higher Quadavs conned easy prey. I hope they're TWTBW for a 33 now. ^^

Soon, I plan on doing quite a bit of this mining.
