Were black sapphire and blue diamond something that were added later? Almost sure I saw patch note regarding blue diamond being added later during second half of Kunark, around time when the rest of epic (in addition to paladin) were added. I'm not sure if black sapphire was added with it during that patch or before, or has always existed.

I vaguely remember this too, but there's no
https://wiki.project1999.com/Patch%20Notes mentioning it ... although Verant liked to keep tradeskill recipes a big secret, so that doesn't prove anything.
I did find an old Wayback Machine cut of EQ Traders, supposedly from 1999, that shows both gems existing:
https://web.archive.org/web/19991128...eqtraders.com/. Interestingly, they claim that there was no recipes for blue diamonds ... but also, that page mentions enchanted velium, which clearly didn't exist in 1999 ... so I think it's actually a later archive, and Wayback is just confused about dates.
But the fact that (by Velious) the tradeskill addicts on that site (and on Caster's Realm, the Enchanter site) hadn't yet figured out the recipes for Blue Diamonds at least strongly suggests that they were added in late Kunark.
