Wikipedia article

This article is about an older version of DF.

Emeralds, a green form of the mineral beryl, are precious gems, found in small clusters within schist, granite, and marble. A value of 40 makes them excellent trade goods or decorations.

Due to the layers where they are found, they are often found in small clusters adjacent to the magma sea, leaving only 1 or 2 crystals far enough away from the magma to be mined.

D4Dwarf.png This article or section has been rated D for Dwarf. It may include witty humour, not-so-witty humour, bad humour, in-jokes, pop culture references, and references to the Bay12 forums. Don't believe everything you read, and if you miss some of the references, don't worry. It was inevitable.


Some adventurers have been known to try to use emeralds as a form of currency, though most shopkeepers insist on coins (or simply bartering).
