Crystal Mine

Crystal is the resource commonly used in electronics and a fundamental building block of ships, buildings, and research. It's more scarce and expensive to mine than ore.

Like the Crystal Mine and the Hydrogen Synthesizer, the Ore Mine can have workers assigned to it and will produce extra ore.
