Use the verified Mine a Mountain crystal loop, sell-trip checks, and current value-table limits before planning a run.
The useful crystal decision is not a guessed rarity chart. It is whether the next crystal run fails because of cold, mining speed, or Backpack capacity.
Keep the decision qualitative until a verified value table exists.
If the route ends because the bag fills, sell and compare the Backpack guide before buying another mining upgrade.
If mining speed is the blocker, hold the crystal haul until the Pickaxe path is the obvious spend.
If cold stops the climb before the crystal route pays off, use Warmth before chasing rarer crystals.
Sell enough crystals to remove the blocker that cut the last run short: Warmth for cold, Pickaxe for mining speed, or Backpack for capacity.

No. They show player interest in rare crystals and luck builds, but this page only treats them as demand metadata.
