Mining ore is messed up

There seems to be a continuity issue in the ore distribution. All I can find is Pursuit, nickel, and zinc in any of the ascended realms. there is no aryium, cobalt, or anything else readily mineable in the usual areas. All the different realms - astrolabe, antiquarian, etc and realm type - forest, desert, and swamp, in every ascended category I have tried, all have the exact same resources. Is this on purpose? I remember before the update, Aryium was found I think in the desert... Its nowhere to be found in any of the higher level realms.
