Where is all the mithril? Mithril is nearly indestructable and there should be a great deal in the world. After the disaster that pulled down all civilzation what ever that was and sent the world back to the stoneage so that the Greeks and and other ancient people had to find themselves again, I would think that mithril artifacts would be laying around and being what they are still be in the world today. The greatest portion of all the mithril mined was certainly gathered up and paid to Sauron in tribute. But after his death the death of the Balrog the dwarves certainly returned to Moria and began mining again. The people of Gondor would have found it very useful and traded generously for it under the rule of Aragorn and the dwarved would have needed to trade and still would need to trade. By the way how do they support themselves now? You can't eat rock or mithril supposing they have not yet mined it all. Did the disaster that ended the world of middle earth kill all the dwarves? Where the heck are they.
