I'm not sure if it was there previous, but after the 3/1/2011 patch, I noticed a new recipe under the Minerals category while looking through all that I can craft.
Apparently I can craft a red shard...
Into a red shard.
But eats up 2 energy and some crowns for the crafting process.
What is this for, even?
Used to be a dusk drop recipe I believe.
