What is the Museum?
The Museum is a passive income feature in Prospecting. You donate minerals to display cases, and they generate income over time based on their value and modifiers.
Slot Rarity Restrictions
Each museum slot has a maximum rarity level it can accept:
| Slot | Max Rarity | Recommendation |
|---|---|---|
| 1-3 | Rare | Use best Rare minerals |
| 4-6 | Epic | Use best Epic minerals |
| 7-9 | Legendary | Use best Legendary minerals |
| 10-12 | Mythic | Use best Mythic minerals |
| 13-15 | Exotic | Use best Exotic minerals |

Modifier Priority
Modifiers multiply your mineral's value. Priority order:
- Voidtorn (2.5x) - Best modifier, Void exclusive
- Iridescent (2.0x) - Excellent for high-value minerals
- Electrified (1.8x) - Great alternative
- Glowing (1.5x) - Good budget option
- Shiny (1.25x) - Common but still helpful
