mining-related noob quesions

[fnurov]

i v read:

Whenever an ore vein refreshes after being harvested from, there is a slight chance it will change resource type. For example, a mountainside that yielded Valorite today might give plain iron tomorrow, and vice versa. Your level of skill does not determine your chance of finding a colored vein, it only determines whether you can extract the colored ore.

there Mining - UOGuide

i have 2 runebooks (32 runes/spots) and never found a single gold ore in 1 week of farming (today i changed some runes to get the ores i want :P)
