well i, like many others i know, am mining for zinc ore to gain tenshodo fame by repeating the quest Shady Business in Bastok. I was wondering if one area tends to have more zinc mined than another area? I've been mining in Zehum Mines, just beacuse it's right there in town, but i don't seem to get much zinc just a lot of iron.

I think palborough might have some zinc, but in the time it takes to get there you could find and exhaust an entire mining point in zeruhn. If you go to palborough dont make the mistake I did and mine at the mythrill seams, all they give you is mine gravel. I have yet to do Shady Business, but hey if you got too much zinc it would cost you to do the quest, the iron is supposed to pay for your mining.

sometimes if the miners in there are blacksmiths, they will trade you zincs for iron. just try asking around (2 for 1, depending on prices) also, try to kill all the tunnel worms you see... i usually get more zinc from them than from mining :O_o

In my opinion it was just easier doing the windhurst version, with the yaguado necklaces.....do the gobbie bag quests and get your inventory up to 50. Then just go naked with a high level job and start killing yaguados up in giddeus. 3 days of this netted me the fame to do all the scroll quests as well as 50k from the turning in of the necklaces. That and also a nice 100k return from all the silver beastcoins I smelted
