I don't think Ebbedin should have an ebony mine. Though it is probably the most doable right now, it doesn't mean that it would make a good mod, and here is why:
Ebbedin is small, poor, and remote. Having an ebony mine on the island wouldn't make sense because any town that finds ebony attracts settlers, moneymakers, politics, etc... Look at Caldera, for example. This town would be rich and prosperous, which would not be consistent with our TES3 mod, or with the other work that has been done so far on Ebbedin. Ebbedin is not rich according to our official Silgrad Lore. Ebbedin is isolated and desperate. We cannot have ebony in Ebbedin.
So, what should we do instead of ebony? Or should we cut the mine out entirely from the picture?
