I'm pretty sure it's just like casting Boom under the same conditions. It should be fine.

The link you provided for Gemstone Mine provides the answer.

Sacrificing this card when the last counter is removed is part of the effect of tapping it for mana.

So, no. You'd basically be trying to sacrifice it for 2 effects, which you can't do.

Doesn't work. After you remove the counter from Gemstone Mine to produce the 1 mana, no trigger goes onto the stack, the land is immediately put into your graveyard. Therefore, you can't sacrifice it to Shard Volley.

its usually because people are lazy and stupid to read their own cards

it's exactly the same as when someone asks a question that the first google result on the topic answers in bold, capital letters.

I forgot the way Boom was worded and I didn't bother to check, my bad.
