Crystals in Sol Valley
The desert is full green crystal formationswhich grant Green Energy Crystals when broken. Players can break these crystals with missiles or by hitting the Vi-O-La, and should get in the habit of doing this right when crossing Sol Valley.
Gibardaum Rocks in Sol Valley
Players occasionally find large metal stones near the green crystal formations in Sol Valley. These stones can be destroyed with Psychic power bombwhich is unlocked by chasing down the fifth Master Teleportation Key and holds a large amount of green energy crystals.
Sol Valley Shrine
There are six shrines in Sol Valley that give players the opportunity to get upgrades Metroid Prime 4elemental shots. In these shrines, there are containers filled with green energy crystals and players should break them using missiles.
The Green Energy Crystal Finder, obtainable at the Altar of Legacy after reaching 75% green, makes finding the remaining crystals in Sol Valley relatively easy. This means that if a player doesn't see any markers on their radar, they should make sure to check them carefully circuit from the desert. Additionally, players can create concentric circles that expand from the Chrono Tower until crystals appear on their radar, though this approach should only be necessary when trying to completely fill the metro with blue.
