The Altrumm Mines are amber mines which have supplied Kurzick amber for many generations. The current mining operation has created a very small town with the members of the mining crew. Although amber is not as expensive as jade, the amber from these mines is still sought after by those interested in Kurzick culture.[1]
There are no other amber mines in service, so all newly mined amber comes from this mine, increasing profitability.[2] The nearby ruins of Altrumm are thought by most historians to be all that remains of the first great Kurzick city, destroyed by some ancient and mysterious catastrophe. The Kurzicks themselves claim their ancestors did not build the structures found there, which would mean that Altrumm influenced Kurzick architectural sensibilities.[3]
