Lunarite

Lunarite

Type	Mineral
Location	Frozen Geode; Omni Geode
Sell Price	200g

Lunarite is a geode mineral that comes from Frozen Geodes and Omni Geodes. It is one of the better finds inside a Frozen Geode, worth twice what the unopened geode sells for. Its first use is the museum, where it fills a slot in Gunther's mineral collection and moves the next reward closer. After that, spare pieces are sold, given to the Wizard or sewn into the Goodnight Shirt. Since Frozen Geodes drop on the middle floors of The Mines, Lunarite tends to show up once mining is in full swing.

The in-game description reads: The cratered white orbs form a tight cluster.

Location

Frozen Geodes are the main route to Lunarite. Each one has roughly a one in thirty chance to hold it. Omni Geodes can give it as well, but they spread their odds across every geode mineral, so each Omni Geode is a far weaker bet.

Rocks on floors 41 to 79 of The Mines drop Frozen Geodes. Rocks on the Farm drop them in Winter. They also appear in Fishing Treasure Chests and come from a full Ice Pip Fish Pond. The Hill-top Farm and the Four Corners Farm have Frozen Geode Nodes in their small quarry. Sebastian's booth at the Desert Festival, when he runs one, sells Frozen Geodes for Calico Eggs.

Clint at the Blacksmith opens geodes for a small fee. The Geode Crusher opens them for free after Clint's Cave Patrol special order has given its recipe. Daily luck leaves the contents unchanged.

Prices

Lunarite matches Fluorapatite and Ghost Crystal in price. Only Kyanite, Fairy Stone and Ocean Stone are worth more among Frozen Geode minerals. A miner with the Gemologist profession, chosen at Mining level 10, gets thirty percent more for Lunarite.

A Crystalarium copies Lunarite in about three and a half days. That earns close to 58g a day, about half of what Jade earns in the same machine. A Crystalarium is more profitable with a gem in it.

Uses

Donating the first Lunarite to Gunther at the museum adds it to the mineral collection. The mineral milestones pay out in furniture, for example the Standing Geode, the Singing Stone and the Obsidian Vase. With forty-one minerals donated the Crystal Chair arrives, and with fifty a free Crystalarium.

Putting Lunarite and Cloth in the Sewing Machine makes the Goodnight Shirt. Like every mineral, Lunarite can also be placed in the spool with a dyeable clothing item to dye it.

Gifts

The Wizard likes Lunarite.

The Dwarf, Krobus and Sandy all dislike Lunarite. The marriage candidates Abigail, Alex, Elliott, Emily, Haley, Harvey, Leah, Maru, Penny, Sam, Sebastian and Shane dislike it as well, as do the shop owners Clint, Gus, Marnie, Pierre, Robin and Willy. The same goes for the older residents Caroline, Demetrius, Evelyn, George, Jodi, Kent, Lewis, Linus and Pam, and for Jas, Leo and Vincent.

Spare Lunarite sells for enough that a cheaper geode mineral is usually the better gift for the Wizard. Every geode mineral earns the same friendship with him.

Opening a full stack of Frozen Geodes at Clint after a trip through the middle floors fills in Lunarite and several of its neighbours at once.
