snow coyote
Platform: PC game pass
Issue: None of the vitalys mines nodes are working. They all look as if they have sapphires in them, but there is no way to mine them.
UPDATE: Walking out and back in seems to have fixed them.

Issue: I have been mining for days and haven't been able to find a single shiny emerald or shiny peridot. I have been mining in every biome, trying to get them to spawn in. I know that shiny gems are supposed to be rare, but the fact is that I have been able to collect at least a handful of every other shiny gem throughout my entire search, but have not found any shiny green gems this entire time. Not sure if this is a glitch or just insanely bad luck, but either way, I'm frustrated and considering giving up entirely.

Issue: Mining in Dazzle Beach(maybe other areas but this happened in dazzle beach) counts as mining in the vitaly mines
cold hedge
Platform: PC
Issue: Got the "Mine 4 Rock Spots in the Vitalys Mines" while mining just 3 spots in Dazzle Beach. The 4th was probably from Peaceful Meadows, which was where I was mining before Dazzle Beach.

Issue: Miraculous Pickaxe Polish not guaranteeing a gem. All rocks only gave stone and coal when mined.

Platform: Xbox Series S
Issue: Shiny Gems have stopped appearing since getting the "Mine something shiny and green" Star Path duty. I have mined 4 loops of the biomes with Peridots and Emeralds and have not seen a shiny gem of any type. I've gone through 3 "Even More Miraculous Pickaxe Polish"s and still no shiny gem of any type

Not mining in the Vitalys Mines, but it's counting towards it.
