Jamborite is a geode mineral found in plain Geodes and Omni Geodes. It shares the top price among plain Geode minerals with Alamite, which makes it one of the better rolls from an early Geode. Its real value is as a museum donation, adding one more mineral to Gunther's collection and its rewards. Extra pieces sell for a fair price, go to the Wizard as gifts, or turn into a Green Thumb Shirt and green dye at the Sewing Machine. Since plain Geodes are so common, Jamborite usually arrives early without any special effort.
The in-game description reads: The crystals are so tightly packed it almost looks fuzzy.
Location
Plain Geodes are the reliable route. Each one has about a one in thirty-two chance to hold Jamborite. Omni Geodes can contain it too. Their odds are spread across every geode mineral, though, so each Omni Geode is far less likely to give it.
Rocks on floors 1 to 39 of The Mines drop plain Geodes most often. Rocks on the Farm and elsewhere in the valley also give them. Duggies drop them about one time in four. Fishing Treasure Chests, the Garbage Can beside the museum and a full Stonefish Fish Pond can all provide them.
Clint at the Blacksmith opens each geode for a small fee. His Cave Patrol special order rewards the Geode Crusher recipe, and the Crusher opens geodes for free. Daily luck leaves the contents unchanged, so geodes can be cracked on any day.
Prices
A Geode opened into Jamborite returns three times what the Geode sells for unopened. That makes cracking plain Geodes worthwhile even before the museum is full. The Gemologist profession at Mining level 10 adds a further thirty percent to the price.
In a Crystalarium, Jamborite takes about three and a half days per copy. That earns roughly 43g a day. Gems such as Amethyst or Jade earn far more in the same machine, so the Crystalarium is rarely worth spending on Jamborite.
Uses
Donating the first Jamborite to Gunther at the museum adds it to the mineral collection. Mineral milestones give furniture such as the Standing Geode, the Singing Stone and the Obsidian Vase. Donating forty-one minerals earns the Crystal Chair, and fifty earn a free Crystalarium.
Putting Jamborite and Cloth in the Sewing Machine makes the Green Thumb Shirt. Jamborite also works in the green dye pot at Emily and Haley's house.
Gifts
The Wizard likes Jamborite, as he likes every geode mineral.
The shopkeepers Clint, Gus, Marnie, Pierre, Robin and Willy dislike Jamborite. The same goes for the Dwarf, Krobus and Sandy, and for Jas, Leo and Vincent. The marriage candidates Abigail, Alex, Elliott, Emily, Haley, Harvey, Leah, Maru, Penny, Sam, Sebastian and Shane dislike it too, and so do the older residents Caroline, Demetrius, Evelyn, George, Jodi, Kent, Lewis, Linus and Pam.
After the museum copy is donated, selling spare Jamborite is a good use of it. It is among the most valuable things a plain Geode can give.
