I wonder, there are reason to pick blue or green minerals instead of other types?
Red - Drakon
Yellow - Seraphynx
Purple - Maskeraith
Green - ???
Blue - ???
But some people pick green & blue instead other colors. Why? I don't see a reason.
Minerals.

For the time being moon- and valestone can only be used for the Geological Survey.
Although some of us belive/hope/wish for that in the future new sprites will be added which will require these.
Edit: Jenovasforumchar ninja-d before me :)

> 3. And once you have maxed
> 3. And once you have maxed all sprites you want and have Little interest in trading Food, you see the same low use to all Minerals, so why *not* simply pick the largest?
Because minerals are shared for party. Pick any other for your teammates?
P.s. Please back deposit minerals mechanic, I want 100% achievements. Now it's 59/60 -_-

keep in mind
Keep in mind that although you cannot trade minerals, you can trade sprite food that you make with minerals. So, to make sprite food as fast as possible, pick up the biggest red, yellow, or purple mineral. Use it to make sprite food and trade that food for the type of food that you want. You can do this using random trades in Haven, but it works especially well if you're in a guild with other players doing the same thing.
I often pick up blue and green minerals, because like Jenovasforumchar I assume that all mineral types will be useful again someday.

Pick the red, purple, yellow only.
If there aren't any then just grab the biggest green or blue.

wiki updated
The wiki page "Mineral" hadn't been updated in a while. I just rewrote it to include all of this stuff. Cheers.

New sprites when???
Obviously Red, Yellow, and Purple are being used to feed sprites.
The green and blue are, at this point, being used exclusively for the geological survey prestige mission which pops up every few days.
We all have this secret hunch that OOO will release two new classes of sprites which will eat food that is made from the green and blue minerals ;)
In the past Players could influence the coming gates by deposing Minerals into the arcarde and getting crowns in reward for that. After the sprites got published, there was a too heavy weight to the gates that are created with blue and green Minerals, so OOO changed it to a randomely choosen gate System (and unintentially opened a deapth with the legendary slooms inside). So right now, deposing is unaccessible and the only use for green and blue Minerals are the Prestige Mission that requires These.
So why People like me still pick a shiney valestone or moonstone instead of a small luminate? Very simple:
1. I believe that there will 2 new sprires updated that eat moon- and valestone
2. and after all minerals are eaten by sprites, the arcarde System can come back in roll
3. And once you have maxed all sprites you want and have Little interest in trading Food, you see the same low use to all Minerals, so why *not* simply pick the largest?
