In Moonlight Peaks, you can mine Rose Quartz in the Crystal Cave using an Iron Pickaxe or anything stronger. To reach the Crystal Cave, head west of Fiona’s House in the Moonlit Pines region—specifically north of your farm’s location.

Start from the campfire south of Fiona’s House. Travel west until you spot a small natural pool. From that pool, go north to find the stairs that lead to the upper level. Just to the right of those stairs, there’s a large stone you can break with a Copper Pickaxe or better; the Crystal Cave entrance sits immediately behind it.

Once inside, you’ll see two categories of mining deposits. The pink stones are Rose Quartz, while the blue stones are Moon Crystals. Both types of stones can be mined with an Iron Pickaxe.

How to Make Glass in Moonlight Peaks

Step 1: Turn Rose Quartz into Quartz Dust

To craft Glass, you first need to process Rose Quartz into Quartz Dust using an Enchanted Mortar. The Enchanted Mortar recipe is unlocked during the story quest “The Need for Herbs,” where you’ll crush Nightshade into Nightshade Powder for Luna.

  • Rose Quartz x1
  • Iron Bar x5
  • Refined Stone x10

Step 2: Turn Quartz Dust into Glass

Next, make Glass by smelting Quartz Dust with Charcoal in a Furnace. By the time you’re ready for this step, you should already have a Furnace running in your base. You can produce Charcoal by burning Wood.

  • Quartz Dust x2
  • Charcoal x1
  • Wood x1
  • Copper Ore x15
  • Refined Stone x5
