Have you been gem mining in Webkinz Next yet?
You can visit the mines once per day using either the entrance inside or outside the Curio Shop.
You can also jump directly into the mines from your map.
Search inside the mines for glittering rocks. When you get close to one, a pickaxe will appear that you can use to mine the rock.
There are five different colors: white, red, blue, yellow, and green. The color of rock you choose means there’s a chance you’ll find any gem rarity of that color. But there’s also a chance you’ll find 1 of 2 specific uncommon colors of gem, or 1 of 3 specific common colors of gems.
Unlike Classic, you can find up to 3 gems in one mining session. If you don’t find a gem, you’ll get slag instead, which you can keep to use as a material for crafting special items on the Curio Shop’s Gem Crafting Table.
If you find more than one gem in a single mining session, you’ll have to choose which one you take back to Amanda Panda. You see a counter showing you how many of each gem you already have stored in your collection so you can make an informed choice.
Once you take your gem back to Amanda Panda, she’ll make you an offer to buy your gem. The amount depends on its rarity and how much she wants it. If you’ve collected the Gem of the Day, she’ll offer you the maximum price for that type of gem.
If you choose not to sell, your gem goes into your collection box, where you can store unlimited multiples of each type of gem. Here’s a look at all of them:
Once you’ve collected at least 1 of all 30 different gems, you can trade in a complete set for a Crown of Wonder and walk around looking like Kinzville royalty!
Afterwards, you can keep on collecting gems for another crown, or use your extra gems on the Curio Shop Gem Crafting table to create some gem-tastic prizes!

all I need is one more blue gem. I’ve got 2 of almost every other gem and can’t find the rarest blue!
This is not my favorite feature. I really prefer the mining on Classic,
Frustrated that we can’t sell the slag, I have over a hundred and can’t do that much with them :(
We’ll find a use for it :)
Thank you so much for posting this guide! This will definitely help me from making flaws in my decisions when choosing gems because I remember once choosing between two gems and I somehow chose a common gem over an uncommon gem.
The rocky rose looks so much like a hair clip ! Who agrees with me.
This isn’t really relevant, but my questions aren’t usually answered unless I post them on a recent news page: Will Candy Bash be added to the mobile app? I LOVE that game, and like to earn pet medallions on the go! Thanks! -lmd123
There are no immediate plans to add the game, as it would have to be rewritten in order to work on mobile.
Wow! That’s a lot of gems! I have gotten the Crown Of Wonder on Classic but not on Next. I started Next last year when it just came out, and I didn’t like it then but I am now having lots of fun with it! I would love it if you could bring the gliding game to Classic! Oh by the way if you were wondering my names in Classic or Next for Next it is Prince Huskyworld_1 and for Classic it is Harms1125. Though I wish I could change prince to something else! xD
Just starting so don’t have a lot yet. It’s more real than Classic and more fun.
I have my crown, now I am once again looking for the Rare Red one as I need it for crafting.
I got my crown a few weeks ago and it is so pretty. :D I also love the farmers plot for growing my plants and I even got a competition broccoli and it is SO big! :0
