Lyrium vein

A lyrium vein is an ore vein containing lyrium.
== Background ==
There are rich deposits of lyrium veins beneath the Frostback Mountains which are extracted by the Mining caste of the dwarves, who have a natural resistance to their effects. They can also be found in the Fade.
The Bastion of the Pure has reportedly a massive number of overgrown lyrium veins which remain untapped.
== Effect ==
In Dragon Age: Origins, when touched, lyrium veins replenish the health and mana of non-dwarf humanoids. This is slightly strange, considering that the codex entry foretells burns, delirium, and death from contact with raw lyrium.
