The Sims 4 Crystal Collecting Guide
Gems List and Possible Elements from Geo Council
Collecting Crystals in The Sims 4 means digging up Rocks found around the game's Neighborhoods, Parks, and Secret Areas. Any rock could yield any of these, but don't expect it to be a quick process. Metals, Crystals, MySims Trophies, and Fossils all come from the same spawners so this is quite a long process. Rares are more likely to be found off the beaten path, such as in Forgotten Grotto or areas distant from homes in Oasis Springs. See the Guide to Collections for some general Tips to finding them.
The following list of Crystals indicates what Elements that gem may be broken down to when it is sent to the Geo Council. This is how you collect Elements. You'll get one of the Elements listed in the mail the following day after sending it for $20. The Elements further to the right are generally more rare than those first listed, so it may take multiple attempts to finish that collection.
Get to Work adds two new Crystals: Nitelite and Crandestine, which can be found on the Planet Sixam.
Crystal Crown
The Sims 4 Get Famous features a Celestial Crystal Crown that can be purchased and makes good use of Crystals. Crystals are also utilized in Archaeology

Anyone know why I would find Crytacoo on my roof?
If you have Seasons installed lightning strikes leave crystals and other collectables occasionally.
Thanks for having done this chart, it really helps out and is greatly appreciated!
where do you find the Fire Opal at with only the sims 4, cats and dog, get to work, and city living?
The dig spots around each world have a chance to spawn a crystal but not a specific crystal, so you will have to send your sim digging each spot many times often to find the specific crystal you need. You can also purchase some crystals from your Sims PC. With City Living there is a sales table vendor that will pop up that sells crystals. You can find this table in either the Spice District or the Arts most often. Take your sim to one of those locations and basically wait there for the day and hope the vendor pops up. I think the Arts district is slightly better for this particular vendor.
the easiest way I've found to farm rare crystals is to find a diggable rock with crystals sticking out of it, and use the copypasto spell from the magic expansion pack on it repeatedly. i farmed 20 alexandrite in under a half hour that way.
correction. once you have a rare crystal, you can place it in your house and copypasto it there, getting only that type of crystal. much faster.
