Small clusters of gems can be found strewn throughout the fortress. Gems can used to encrust furniture, weapons, armor and ammunition, to create windows and as a source material for legendary artifacts.

Value

Gems have base value of 3 in rough form, which is multiplied by appropriate value modifier from the table below. They gain value after they are cut in a jeweler's workshop. Cut gems have a base value of 5. Items can be decorated (encrusted) with cut gems; all such decorations have a value of 10 times the gem type's value multiplier.

Varieties

Gems come in many varieties, with their own color and value multipliers:

Diamonds are the only gems defined as vulnerable to heat. They ignite at 800°C (1440°F) and boil off at 3700°C (6700°F).

Rare Gems

Colored diamonds only occur in clusters of faint yellow diamonds, and star sapphires and rubies only occur within clusters of their peers. Faint yellow diamonds only appear in Kimberlite (which itself only appears in Gabbro layers) and sapphires and rubies only appear in Bauxite (which occurs in any Sedimentary layers).

Glass

Gem name Value Color Requires
green glass bag full of sand
clear glass bag full of sand + pearlash
crystal glass 10× rough rock crystal + pearlash

Like working metal, making glass requires fuel, either coke or charcoal at a normal glass furnace, or magma at a magma glass furnace.

Glass has other uses than as a mere gem, as glass can be used as (a rather odd looking) stone for most buildings, such as Tables or Doors. In addition, Glass can be converted into Trap components, such as large, spiked balls or giant axes. However, this appears to requires a Glass Bar, which is not possible to create at the current time.

Outside of Metal and Wood, Glass is the only readily available material to create Cages out of, as well.
