Not a bug, in any event. Stone left by ores is always the quality of the ore itself.
Quality nodes are incredibly rare compared to previous worlds.
In roughly 10 hours of prospect mining, I've found 2. Both of those nodes were <20 and only of a single quality type. I can't speak for lower levels of the world, but this is very different from legacy where stone quality could be harvested off surface mountain nodes and found at ~5x the rate mining wise as I've been finding.
L2 of the world also doesn't come with base Q20 anymore either.
By this stage of legacy most players would have Q30 or better axe. Right now most players are lucky to have a Q15 axe of one Q type, and I've heard of several settlements that don't even have that.
maybe intentional to make high q metal axes more needed?
