Mining is a key activity in every Star Path event in Disney Dreamlight Valley. These events often challenge players to hunt for specific Gems, like the task of mining oval Gems, which can be a bit tricky. If you’re eager to complete this task, you’ve come to the right place.
There are more than 40 different Gems available for mining throughout Dreamlight Valley, Storybook Vale, and Eternity Isle. Navigating through them to pinpoint oval Gems can be confusing, so let’s delve into how to mine for oval Gems in Disney Dreamlight Valley.
Which Gems are oval in Disney Dreamlight Valley?
There are six Gems that qualify as oval for the current Star Path task. You’re in luck if you come across their shiny versions as they also count!
| Gem | Where to find |
|---|---|
| Aquamarine (+Shiny Aquamarine) | Found in rock nodes around Dazzle Beach and the Forest of Valor. |
| Blue Zircon (+Shiny Blue Zircon) | Available in the Lagoon area if the A Rift in Time DLC is enabled. |
| Citrine (+Shiny Citrine) | Mine from rock nodes around the Sunlit Plateau and Glade of Trust. |
| Garnet (+Shiny Garnet) | Found in the Plaza and Peaceful Meadow. If A Rift in Time DLC is active, also around The Wastes and The Plains in the Glittering Dunes biome. |
| Peridot (+Shiny Peridot) | Available around Dazzle Beach and Peaceful Meadow. With the DLC, it also appears in The Promenade and Grasslands in Wild Tangle. |
| Tourmaline (+Shiny Tourmaline) | Mined from rock nodes in Frosted Heights and Sunlit Plateau regions. |
Interestingly, while Alexandrite may resemble the other Gems, it doesn’t count towards this task. It’s an odd quirk, but it’s important to focus on the six specified Gems to complete your mission effectively.
While other Gems might catch your eye, like Opal, which looks almost oval, they won’t help you complete this task. Stick to the six that are recognized for this Star Path duty.
Keep in mind that although you can purchase various Gems from Aladdin’s stall, any that you buy won’t count toward this task. You need to mine them yourself to fulfill the requirements.
