Gem Canyon Mining

 

The Gem Planet has deep canyons called "dipsies" by the inhabitants of Pontoppidan. The famous Hippy Dipsy is spectacular beyond belief and features 6-kilometer high emerald cliffs and a tourmaline valley. Unfortunately the air on Pontoppidan won't be breathable for centuries. The Pontoppidans have to import soil (and even earthworms) to grow crops in their domed cities. Not surprisingly, the planet's economy is based on the export of high-quality gems. An unforgiving planetary security system guards their enormous wealth.
