How to mine a lot of gems quickly

To mine a lot of gems in a short amount of time, always remember to bring along a villager assigned as a miner who has a maxed out friendship level. This almost always guarantees that they will give you another gem from a mining node that has one.

The mining bonus procs once the entire mining node has been depleted and once it procs, the miner villager will usually give out a bonus drop that has the highest rarity among the ones you’ve mined from the node. In the case of gem nodes, the miner villager will always give out another copy of the mined gem.
