Cuilin Stone mining rates

I was curious what the drop rates were, so I did some simple data gathering and analysis. Mining The Stones of Sliab Cuilin on Basic level, on a Tuesday, I have recorded 200 samples:
Finest: 6/200 = 3%
Fine: 14/200 = 7%
Common: 56/200 = 28%
Low-Grade: 95/200 = 47.5%
Clay Crystal: 29/200 = 14.5%
This data is pre-G11. Supposedly, the rates of Fine and Finest will go down once G11 hits. It'll be interesting to confirm and compare.
I certainly hope they won't go down much, if at all! D: They should lower the Low-Grade rate instead. >_>;;

I finally got the G11 data. >.> Gathered most of those on a Thursday, and a bit this Friday--on Basic difficulty. 277 samples produced:
Finest: 7/277 = 2.53%
Fine: 22/277 = 7.94%
Common: 93/277 = 33.57%
Low-Grade: 114/277 = 41.15%
Clay Crystal: 41/277 = 14.80%
It seems that this time, the Finest rate has been a bit less, but the Fine has been slightly higher. Common rate was quite a bit higher, and low-grade is lower. Clay crystals remain at basically the same rate as before. The changes in rates are not drastic, so I guess the prediction that G11 would drop the rates on Finest and Fine Cuilin mining is false. Perhaps it's one of those already-implemented changes. :P

Most likely it was. In general NA like to release down-toned balance first (prior to the actual generation that was implemented) and the up-toned balance later (at the actual generation that was implemented).
