You have several raw materials to choose form and some different options available. The materials you will need are:

[Saronite Ore]
[Eternal Earth]
[Crystallized Earth]
[Bloodstone]
[Chalcedony]
[Huge Citrine]
[Sun Crystal]

The goal is to make these items and then disenchant them.

[Bloodstone Band]
[Crystal Chalcedony Amulet]
[Crystal Citrine Necklace]
[Sun Rock Ring]

Each of these required 2x [Crystallized Earth] and 1x [Green quality gem]. Each of these has the cahnce to yield 1-2 [Infinite Dust], 1-2 [Lesser Cosmic Essence] or 1 [Small Dream Shard].

Current prices on my server for [Saronite Ore] are a bit high on AH, so I recommend finding a supplier via trade channel, unless they are 20g or less on AH for you.

You should be able to buy [Eternal Earth] for 7g each or less and any of the green gems for 2g or less. Current market prices for [Infinite Dust] ranges between 3.5-4g when selling stacks.

Cost for mats is usually 3g or less, so if you average 1.5 mats on the DE, you end up with at least 60% profit margin.

I hope this works for you.

This was covered a couple pages back but it's worth mentioning again. I make somehwere in the whereabouts of 500-800g PER DAY using this method.

On my server, the prices are pretty jacked up - favoring this method. Since patch, prices of infinite dust have gone up from 80g to about 110g while prices for the junk gems other than bloodstone have gone down to about 75s each. Eternal earth can be bought out for about 5-6g, so for me the mat cost of each infinite dust is 1g75s and I am able to sell them very consistently at a price of about 105g/stack or 5g25s each. Profit margins on the greater cosmics I get from this are even greater. People snap my auctions up very quickly - often moments after I post them. I am enjoying this gravy train while it lasts.

Tip:
make a macro to disenchant all your jewelery:

/cast disenchant
/use ****

replace **** with crystal chalcedony amulet, sun rock ring, bloodstone band, crystal citrine necklace
