I have to put my 2 cents in about the stone spirits.
First of all if you are going to keep the stone spirits in the game then may i suggest that you add a stone spirit bag or a stone spirit box which holds all the types of stone spirits, so as you mine, a stone spirit is consumed right from the box or bag ( which must be in your backpack).
I can see the use of the stone spirits while mining ores considering the time it takes to mine one ore. You might as well get an extra ore for your time.
I am still undecided about the stone spirits.
Second.... If i am not smith taken (lol) you still need bars to make items. So i believe that bars of any type should remain drops from any activity that has drops from bosses to pick pocketing to wishing well fruit.... etc
