Ep. 2: Ruri Prospects for Gold and Discovers the Difference Between Cash and Scientific Value

Nagi accompanies Ruri to a gold prospecting district where she practices with a rock hammer. Although Ruri becomes skilled, her split stones reveal only pyrite, a fact confirmed by a streak test. The discovery of a uniquely shaped crystal leads to a conversation regarding the distinction between monetary worth and scientific importance. Later, the pair attempts panning for placer gold in a stream bed, achieving improved results following a heavy rain. Their search of a pothole uncovers additional gold, including a large nugget that Ruri prefers to retain rather than sell.
