A '''gem vein''' is a concentrated node of [[Gems|gems]] found in [[Safe Zone|safe zones]]. Shoot it open (it takes a fair amount of fire) and it spills a fountain of gems — around 120G in total.

Each safe zone's treasure spot holds either a gem vein or a crate with a [[Gun Modules|gun module]]. When you are at 2 [[Health|hp]] or less the game is merciful and strongly favours the crate, whose heart-type module can heal you. In [[Arm Spin Style]] the spot is always a crate, so gem veins never appear.
