The Peridot is a small lime-green gem that you can mine in Story of Seasons: Friends of Mineral Town. It can be found even in the early levels of the Lake Mine.

How To Get Peridot Gems

Gems like Peridot can only be found by breaking rocks with your Hammer at the Lake Mine. Just keep digging and smashing rocks until you finally find a piece of Peridot!

Tip: You’re more likely to find Peridot from rocks on levels that end in the number 4.

Upgrading the Hammer to the Cursed/Blessed or Mythic level can allow you to charge it and simultaneously break all the boulders on the map, saving you a lot of time.

Remember that you can only access the Lake Mine during Winter, when Kappa’s lake freezes over.

In later stages of the game, though, you can find a Travel Stone on Level 255 of the Spring Mine which will allow you to instantly teleport anywhere in Mineral Town on a whim.

Selling Peridots

Peridots can be sold to either Zack or Huang for 68 G.

To sell your Peridot to Zack, simply drop your gems into the Shipping Bin and wait for him to pick them up at 5:00 PM every day!

As usual for Huang, you’ll need to head to his shop and talk to him over the counter.

While selling to Huang might feel tempting to do all the time, you would do well to remember that selling your Peridot via the Shipping Bin will count towards the list of shippable items you need to achieve for full completion.

This is important because shipping all possible items is a requirement for marrying either Kappa or the Harvest Goddess. You can track your progress by checking the Shipping List on your bookshelf.
