Mercury, a rare mineral. It looks like graphite with little white or silver inclusions. Good luck!

I'm only missing one too, I'm not sure which one it is, but I don't think I ever came across the Tourmaline. Here's a screenshot of my missing mineral :Screenshot
Can you take one too so we can compare ? Would be easier to tell which one we're missing without getting an headache grin

Edit :Oops I'm a bit late for answering op. Can someone also help me please smile ?

THANK YOU!!! I figured it was a mineral that I had already seen but forgot to donate.

My (formerly!) missing mineral is in the same spot in the museum as yours...I don't think they fill in in alphabetical order or anything, I think they fill in in the order you find them from the inside to the outside.

The tourmaline is big, two-pointed like quartz looks, and has red - white - green horizontal stripes from bottom to top.


Also, OMG, thank you so much Aviatrix, I now have a completed collection and was

Yep I'm definitely missing the tourmaline, thanks for the reply. I think they are sorted by rarity.

Rhaenyra,

sounds like you owe me a 50 coin finder's fee. I'm just sayin'. grin

Joy42,

They're grouped by rarity - a common group, a less common group, and an even less common group. But within those groups they don't sit in any particular order in the Museum. With the minerals, it seems that the little pedestals fill up from left to right within their groups. With bugs, that's not true, but they don't have assigned spots either. It's a mystery!

If you call something an "explanation" when it ends in "It's a mystery!", you're welcome! grin

Hi all,
I'm fairly new, started playing about a month ago. I have all but 1 mineral (Platinum). Can anyone that found it, please help me locate it and when to expect it? I'm on my 4th generation of mayors now. Thank you smile

Awesome, thank you. I guess it might just take a bit more time and playing for me to get it. I appreciate your help smile
