{{Quote|Digging crystals out of the ground, and knowing what they do.}}
[[Geology]] allows the collection of gems which are used for crafting and the [[teleportation]] skill. In order to raise this skill a player must first obtain the associated [[Surveying]] skill from [[Jaime Fatholm]], and use a '''Mineral Survey'''.
* Mineral Surveys are named for both a region and color of gemstone. A [[Eltibule Orange Mineral Survey]] must be used in [[Eltibule]] and will only reward standard gems tagged with [[: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 bonus gems can be obtained if you collect another gem deposit shortly after collecting a previous gem deposit. The gems obtained this way depend Speed bonus loot table is based on the area where the gem deposit was collected location and include some of the rarest gems in game as well as gems of any color.
* 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.
=== Training {{msg:BASEPAGENAME}} ===
* [[Jaime Fatholm]] teaches [[Surveying]], which is needed to level [[Geology]]

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

 ==== 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|-| [[Serbule Hills]] || 1.5 - 3 min || 1 || * Higher chance for blue and green gems* Lower chance for orange and white gems (other than Winterprize)* Rarely Ilmari gems|-| [[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|-| [[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. ====Gem Tiers===={{:Gems}} ==== Crystal Nodes =====
