There's a pink diamond and a rainbow gem. I have most luck finding pink diamonds when my sims go dumpster diving, which is used in the law enforcement and journalism careers.
The rainbow one is different from the "luminorious" gem? Or is there yet another gem, because I've collected the luminorious one. Am I even spelling luminorious right? I guess if it's a made up word anyway, it shouldn't matter...

looks made-up to me...as words go, that is.

I have my astronaut sim do gem collecting a couple of days each week. In about 100 total days (so about 20 collecting days) he has only found 1 pink diamond. It was on the hill above the stadium, only time I've ever seen a gem there at all. The only rainbow gem he's found was by dumpster diving. He's found well over 200 space rocks, over 300 metals, and about 200 gems. I keep selling off the low-cost gems and cheap metals. I've kept the better gems after being cut and the metals after being smelted in the family inventory for future needs.
By the way, if you are looking for the last metal, I first found plutonium in the valley between simhenge and the Goth's house.
And having him jog between collecting sites was a nice, easy way to improve his athletic skill.

Yeah, my gem-collector became a marathon runner as a result of his searches.
Currently having CTD issues (unrelated to gem-hunting) and taking a break from the game, though. >:(

I'm curious, what's the burial ground challenge?
The burial ground challenge sometimes pops up when you move a sim into a new house. A pop-up appears that tells you that your house was built on a burial ground. If you accept the challenge when it loads the lot it creates 3 tombstones with ghosts. Next to each tombstone will be a gem of some sort, you can collect these. A few minutes after you first load the lot a repoman will appear and ask if you want your ghosts busted. If you say yes he will repo the tombstones and your ghosts will be gone, if you say no you have 3 npc ghosts who will haunt your lot till you get rid of them some other way.
