Rhodochrosite was a type of red crystal that made up most of the planet Crait. It was considered moderately valuable.[1]
Behind the scenes[]
- "I've recently learned of a fascinating crystal called 'rhodochrosite' that forms on the planet Crait, which is said to have impressive healing properties. Just think of the potential remedies we could develop with such a thing! It's enough to get any respectable doctor salivating! Could I trouble you to bring me a sample?"
- ―A rebel doctor at Echo Base
Star Wars: The Last Jedi: Incredible Cross-Sections incorrectly spells the mineral's name as "rhodocrosite."[3] A rhodochrosite crystal is able to be hung in the cockpit of a New Republic starfighter in the 2020 video game Star Wars: Squadrons for 800 of the game's in-game currency, glory.[4] In the mission "The Healing Power of Crystals" in the non-canon video game LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga, rhodochrosite crystals are said to have healing powers which lose their potency after being mined.[5]
