Using this and a deconstruction staff on thulecite armor yields 3 thulecite and 2 nightmare fuel at the cost of 1.4 nightmare fuel, .6 green gems, .4 thulecite, and .4 living logs, if durability is taken into account. This results in a net gain of .6 nightmare fuel and 2.6 thulecite at the cost of .6 green gems and .4 living logs. In terms of non-renewable resources, thulecite gained = 2.6 thulecite/.6 green gems = 4 1/3 thulecite/green gem.

Thulecite still is not renewable, since green gems are non-renewable, but this does allow for a greater quantity of thulecite to be gained from any individual world. I'm not familiar with the scarcity of thulecite or green gems, but from just looking at recipes, this seems to be the most useful way to use green gems, as it allows one gem to provide more than enough thulecite for any two amulets, a club, or a helmet. 3 gems is about equal to a full set of thulecite equipment.
