5 of the 839 newly discovered Forever recipes are Mining — 1% of them — consuming 14 tracked materials.
That makes it the #9 most expanded of the 12 professions the new recipes touch.
Counts come from recipes read out of the Forever client. More recipes is not more demand: what players craft, and what any of it sells for, is unknown until the markets open.
