Gemstones include any valuable crystalline minerals from amber to diamonds. Gemstones are so valuable that collectors, nobility, and the otherwise rich sometimes use them as currency in lieu of rupees. Monsters—especially silver and golden monsters—evaporate into valuable gemstones when they are slain, so adventurers and mercenaries often supply and use them as well.
Aside from being used as currency, gemstones have inherent magical power. Like spoils, they supply their full value when used as materials in crafting. Some spells even use gemstones as a material component, often specifically diamonds. The adjacent table lists the most renowned types of gems in Hyrule, but there could certainly be more beyond these.
Minerals with overt magical effects, like luminous stones, are considered magic items instead of gemstones. Items that are formed by a creature, from raw pearls to masterwork jewelry, are instead considered spoils. Other minerals of value are usually considered trade goods instead of gemstones.
