== {{msg:BASEPAGENAME}} Overview==
[[ProjectGorgon:Geology]] allows the collection of [[ProjectGorgon:gems]] which are used for crafting and the [[ProjectGorgon:teleportation]] skill. In order to raise this skill a player must first obtain the associated [[ProjectGorgon:Surveying]] skill from [[ProjectGorgon:Jaime Fatholm]], and use a '''Mineral Survey'''.
* Mineral Surveys are named for both a region and color of gemstone. A [[ProjectGorgon:Eltibule Orange Mineral Survey]] must be used in [[ProjectGorgon:Eltibule]] and will only reward standard gems tagged with [[ProjectGorgon::Category:Items/OrangeCrystal]]. Some gems are less common than others, for example Obsidians are not as common when making Blue Mineral Surveys.
* Speed bonus gems can be obtained if you collect another gem deposit shortly after collecting a previous gem deposit. Speed bonus loot table is based on the location and include some of the rarest gems in game.
* Gems are used in various crafting recipes to create Enchanted equipment. They are placed into the Primary Crystal and Secondary Crystal slots as a method to determine what skills equipment will have when crafted.
* Many NPCs like minerals as favor. Some will prefer specific gems, some will like colors categories, and a few will accept any of them.
* Blue Mineral Surveys leading to [[ProjectGorgon:Amethyst]]s and Green Mineral Surveys leading to [[ProjectGorgon:Aquamarine]]s are quite popular due to their use in [[ProjectGorgon:Teleportation]].
=== In-Game Description ===

{{:{{msg:BASEPAGENAME}}/Recipes}}
== Geology Mechanics ==
==== Types of Minerals and Common Terminology ====
The [[ProjectGorgon:Geology]] skill aids in the collection of multiple types of mineral items. Every Gem is a Crystal but not every Crystal is a Gem.
* {{Item|Agate}} is both a Gem and a Crystal.
* {{Item|Rubywall Crystal}} is a Crystal but not a Gem.
* {{Item|Glowy Yellow Crystal}} is an Irradiated Crystal. Although these are a type of Crystal, they sometimes require [[ProjectGorgon:Mining]] or [[ProjectGorgon:Foraging]] to gather. This type can sometimes be hazardous to carry.
* {{Item|Cow Malachite}} is an Attuned Gem crafted through a [[ProjectGorgon:Sigil Scripting]] recipe.
* {{Item|Maximized Sardonyx}} is a Catalyst Gem crafted through [[ProjectGorgon:Geology]].
* {{Item|Sapphire}} is an "Ilmari Gem," a name given to a group of ten gems added at the same time as the [[ProjectGorgon:Ilmari]] zone. Ilmari Gems are often obtained as a Speed Bonus through [[ProjectGorgon:Surveying]].

Collecting gems and crystals is often accomplished through the use of Mineral Surveys crafted through [[ProjectGorgon:Surveying]]. Once crafted, a specific level of [[ProjectGorgon:Geology]] is required to understand each map.
{{:Surveying/Geology Survey Maps}}

==== Speed Bonus ====
If you collect another survey shortly after collecting a previous survey, then you can obtain a speed bonus. While most can be obtained at any location, the amount varies based on the survey location and some gems are more likely to be found at a given location as shown in table below.

{| class="sortable wikitable"
!Location
!Time Required
!Number of Gems
!Types of Gems
|-
| [[ProjectGorgon:Serbule Hills]] || 1.5 - 3 min || 1 ||
* Blue and green gems
* Piece of Green Glass
* Very low chance of Ilmari gems
|-
| [[ProjectGorgon:Eltibule]] || 1.5 - 3 min || 1-2 ||
* Higher chance for blue and green gems
* Lower chance for orange and white gems including {{Item|Winterprize}}
* Rarely Ilmari gems
|-
| [[ProjectGorgon:Kur Mountains]] || 2.5 - 4.5 min || 1-3 ||
* Higher chance for orange and white gems including {{Item|Winterprize}}
* Lower chance for blue and green gems
* Rarely Ilmari gems
|}

===== Tip =====
* Try to do as many survey maps per batch as your inventory allows to maximize the amount of speed bonuses you get.

==== Crystal Nodes ====
Across [[ProjectGorgon:Alharth]], crystal nodes can be discovered and mined for crystals or gemstones. They are often found deep in dungeons.
{| {{STDT}}

|-
| Blue Crystal || ??? || 80 || [[ProjectGorgon:Borghild]]
|-
| Green Crystal || 20 || 80 || [[ProjectGorgon:Borghild]]
|-

|-
| Pulsing Crystal (drop semi-real hassium) || 50 || 150 || [[ProjectGorgon:Gazluk]] Plateau
|}

==== Crafting with Gems ====
Gems are used in various crafting recipes to create Enchanted equipment. Gems can be placed into the Primary Crystal and Auxiliary Crystal slots in a recipe to determine what skills an item will have when crafted.
* {{Item|Goshenite}} and {{Item| Sunstone}} are two Ilmari Gems which are intended to generate Generic treasure effects ([[ProjectGorgon:All_Skills/Treasure_Effects]]). (Confirmed by Citan in [[ProjectGorgon:Game_updates/2018-06-20]]).
* {{Item|Danburite}} can currently be used for [[ProjectGorgon:Endurance]] treasure effects ([[ProjectGorgon:Endurance/Treasure_Effects]]), possibly including extraction of augments. <sup>Needs confirmation</sup>.
* {{Item|Opal}}, {{Item|Goshenite}}, {{Item|Danburite}}, {{Item|Tiger's Eye}}, {{Item|Turquoise}}, {{Item|Emerald}}, {{Item|Sunstone}}, and {{Item|Morganite}} are eight Ilmari Gems used in [[ProjectGorgon:Saddlery]] recipes.
* {{Item|Ruby}} and {{Item|Sapphire}} are the only Ilmari Gems currently not used in Saddlery.
* {{Item|Amethyst}} and {{Item|Aquamarine}} are used in [[ProjectGorgon:Teleportation]].
* {{Item|Diamond}} is useful for resurrection abilities through [[ProjectGorgon:First Aid]] as well as [[ProjectGorgon:Necromancy]] recipes.
* [[ProjectGorgon:Dye Making]] uses gemstones, including the Ilmari Gems, in the creation of specific dyes.

* The other "Ilmari" gems and Rubywall Crystals are currently set to Generic mods<sup>Needs confirmation</sup> .
