Petrified Slime is a geode mineral found in plain Geodes and Omni Geodes. It is unusual among geode minerals because it has a second, renewable supply: the Slime Balls that slimes leave behind in a Slime Hutch. The first piece is best donated, filling a slot in Gunther's mineral collection at the museum. Later pieces help a Slimejack Fish Pond grow, sell for a fair price, or go to the Wizard as a liked gift. At the Sewing Machine it becomes the Slime Shirt or a green dye.
The in-game description reads: This little guy may be 100,000 years old.
Location
Plain Geodes are the early way to find Petrified Slime, with about a one in thirty-two chance each. Omni Geodes can hold it too, though each one shares its odds with every geode mineral.
Rocks on floors 1 to 39 of The Mines drop plain Geodes most often. Rocks on the Farm and around the valley drop them as well. Duggies drop them about a quarter of the time. Extra pieces come from Fishing Treasure Chests, the Garbage Can outside the museum and a full Stonefish Fish Pond.
Clint at the Blacksmith opens geodes for a small fee. His Cave Patrol special order gives the Geode Crusher recipe, which opens geodes without the fee. Daily luck leaves the contents unchanged.
A Slime Hutch is the later, steady supply. Robin builds the hutch on the Farm. Slimes hatched inside drink from its water troughs, which are filled with a Watering Can. Slimes that have had water leave Slime Balls on the floor, and breaking a Slime Ball gives Slime and sometimes Petrified Slime. A busy hutch therefore produces Petrified Slime without any geodes at all.
Prices
Petrified Slime sells for more than twice the price of an unopened Geode. It matches Soapstone and Pyrite from Frozen Geodes. Among plain Geode minerals, only Alamite, Jamborite and Celestine are worth more. Petrified Slime gains thirty percent in value once the Gemologist profession is taken at Mining level 10.
A Crystalarium copies Petrified Slime in about three and a half days, which earns about 35g a day. A Slime Hutch supplies it far more cheaply, and gems such as Amethyst earn three times as much in a Crystalarium.
Uses
Donating the first Petrified Slime to Gunther at the museum adds it to the mineral collection. Gunther marks mineral milestones with furniture rewards, the Standing Geode, the Singing Stone and the Obsidian Vase among them. The Crystal Chair is the prize at forty-one minerals, and a free Crystalarium at fifty.
A Slimejack Fish Pond asks for one Petrified Slime in the quest that raises its limit from seven fish to ten. A farm with a Slime Hutch usually has one ready.
Putting Petrified Slime and Cloth in the Sewing Machine makes the Slime Shirt. Petrified Slime also works in the green dye pot at Emily and Haley's house.
Gifts
The Wizard likes Petrified Slime. A Slime Hutch keeps a steady stream of gifts for him coming.
The older villagers Caroline, Demetrius, Evelyn, George, Jodi, Kent, Lewis, Linus and Pam dislike Petrified Slime. Jas, Leo and Vincent share that view, and so do the shopkeepers Clint, Gus, Marnie, Pierre, Robin and Willy. The same goes for the Dwarf, Krobus and Sandy. Abigail, Alex, Elliott, Emily, Haley, Harvey, Leah, Maru, Penny, Sam, Sebastian and Shane dislike it too.
A Slime Hutch built for its Slime makes Petrified Slime a free by-product. Spare pieces can be sold, saved for the Wizard or kept for a Slimejack pond.
