I just got my 20th one (late winter of ninth year), and I'm still regularily getting 2, sometimes 3 artifacts a year.

That's well below max average pace - do some more exploratory mining.

Well, naturally, this depends heavily on fortress age. I wonder how many artifacts are at Flarechannel and Tormy's 120 year fortress he sometimes talks about.

I think I've gotten around thirty before I move on to other fortresses out of boredom.

I assure you, I have likely done enough mining for years to come, and I'm still doing quite a bit of it. I've dug the inside of a tower that goes about three-fourths of the way up a 100-level-tall mountain (and of course there's many other places I've dug into), and I've had a good start on the outside of the tower now.

Nay, my problem lies in the lack of wealth, production, and industry; I have so many dwarves as miners, masons (I think I have 16 of these, actually; I'll have to draft some of the next migrant wave so my projects don't fall behind) and engravers, I only have enough left over to make what I need to survive, keep my dwarves happy, and arm my military. Hell, a recent birth pushed me up to 120 dwarves and I still haven't met the requirements for a baron yet.
