Benefits of precious stones

The Sphalerite can be used to butcher animals.

The Sphalerite can be used as a blunt weapon. While not as effective as a Sharpened Stick, they can still be useful.

Giving a Sphalerite to an unrelated clan member will form a couple instantly without the manual grooming and bonding process.

Giving a Sphalerite to a hominid that isn't part of the clan will befriend them and they will join your clan.

Holding a Spahlerite will confer Fear Protection. Setting down the Sphalerite stops this positive status effect but picking the Sphalerite back up will immediately start the protection again. However, this isn't an unlimited protection. Eventually the specific Sphalerite will run out of protection and a new one will have to be found to get the protection again.

Finding and inspecting the Sphalerite will complete one of the Spiritual Inception Evolution Feats.
