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.

If they do appear on the map, emeralds tend to be much more plentiful than all other gems of equal value; however, unlike those, emerald clusters never contain more valuable gem inclusions.

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.
