It can be found on levels 81 to 119 of The Mines or in Fishing Treasure Chests. It can also be received as a gift at the Feast of the Winter Star. It may be additionally be found by breaking boxes and barrels in the Skull Cavern. Five Magma Geodes may be produced by Lava Eel in a Fish Pond containing at least 9 fish, and 10 Magma Geodes may be produced in a pond containing 10 fish. Magma Geodes can also be obtained by pickaxing Magma Geode Nodes. These are found in the small quarry on the Hill-top Farm and Four Corners Farm. Magma Geodes may also drop from a train.

The Magma Geode can be broken open by Clint in the Blacksmith shop for data-sort-value="25">25g or by using a Geode Crusher.

Trivia

• By multiplying the sell price of each item by the chance to obtain it and how many you would receive on average (with ores, clay and stone) and adding those products together, you can find the average profit of breaking open a single magma geode. Magma geodes have an average return of data-sort-value="167.34">167.34g, or data-sort-value="142.34">142.34g with the data-sort-value="25">25g opening cost factored in. With the Gemologist Profession, magma geodes have an average return of data-sort-value="207.87">207.87g, or data-sort-value="182.87">182.87g with the data-sort-value="25">25g opening cost factored in. However, a magma geode will sell in the shipping bin for data-sort-value="150">150g, giving a net profit of data-sort-value="32.87">32.87g with Gemologist, and a net loss of data-sort-value="7.66">7.66g without Gemologist. It is therefore profitable to process magma geodes and sell the contents with Gemologist, but it is not profitable to do so without Gemologist.
