Prospecting for Aurelac gems

Aurelac gems are just waiting to be unearthed and plucked from the ground of the Green Moon by an eager entrepreneur.

Background
The scarcity of Aurelac gems has created a high demand and a robust and ever-growing luxury market has emerged. Jewelers favor reticular clarity and the depth of the amber, so the more pristine and beautiful the specimen, the higher the price it will fetch.

Prospecting
The dense forest makes it difficult to have corporate mining operations on the moon. It’s prohibitive to larger operations with big machinery. The environment requires the use of independent, prospectors with a sixth-sense that can help suss the gems out of the ground.

Harvesting
Hunting Aurelac is a nuanced endeavor, best approached with patience and care. Once a prospector has tracked down a deposit, which is no easy task, there is a challenging multi-step process to extract a viable gem from the Aurelac nest.



Using the right gear and chemicals and carefully following the harvesting procedure will allow a prospector to be successful in extracting Aurelac gems to build a fortune.

The use of high quality equipment, such as the Ralon Crusader Laser Scalpel, will effectively lower the skill level required in harvesting gems and make the task easier for novice prospectors.

Harvesting Steps
Step 1: Make an incision in the Aurelac node husk, careful not to puncture the inner membrane.

Step 2: After applying ample diffuser to the inside of the husk, carefully remove the inner membrane.

Step 3: Excise whole carom blisters from the exterior of the inner membrane. Do not puncture the blisters as the acid contained in them will compromise the gem.

Step 4: Apply fazer solution to the inside of the inner membrane to stabilize the gem and achieve maximum clarity. Remove the gem from the inner membrane.

Step 5: Carefully store your gem to protect it for transport.
