Refining adds a chance to find gems by 0.02% per action while Smithing. The first Refining buff has an additional 0.02% chance and a tiny chance to gain gems depending on the base smithing time.

Formula

The chance to find a random gem per action is calculated using this formula:

$GemChance={\frac {baseTime*2+refining*100+100}{500000}}\times 100\%$

Without Refining no gems drop when smithing.
