"Digging crystals out of the ground, and knowing what they do.
Geology 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:Amethysts and Green Mineral Surveys leading to ProjectGorgon:Aquamarines are quite popular due to their use in ProjectGorgon:Teleportation.

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.
| Location | Time Required | Number of Gems | Types of Gems |
|---|---|---|---|
| ProjectGorgon:Serbule Hills | 1.5 - 3 min | 1 |
|
| ProjectGorgon:Eltibule | 1.5 - 3 min | 1-2 |
|
| ProjectGorgon:Kur Mountains | 2.5 - 4.5 min | 1-3 |

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