I noticed Aven Prime has these beautiful gigantic crystals sticking up out of the ground. Sometimes they're purple, sometimes they're green, depending on which map you're playing. Are we going to mine those and make them useful? Or are they just pretty decorations to make the scenery look more "alien?" Even if they were just made of quartz, I think they would come in handy to the colonists. Often futuristic technology in sci-fi stories uses crystals as part of the inner workings. Either that, or those are gigantic emeralds and amethysts; and if they are, they could be mined and used for barter.
Wait a minute...both kinds of gemstones grow underground! My bad. *embarrassed* Guess they're not actually precious stones, but they might be gemstones unique to Aven Prime.
Still, I'm very curious about them.
