Magic was created by the untalented to rival the talented (ie Gemstones). As explained by Birdway in NT2, it's more of a 'conceptual' matter, so I presume Gemstones are unable to use magic precisely because they are 'talented'.

Besides, they emit AIM, so mana is still out of the question for them.
