"They can slice through transparisteel like a laser goes through Sullustan jam." - Lando Calrissian

[p]Corusca gems were extremely rare and valuable crystals. They were produced by a combination of the extreme pressures present in the atmosphere of Yavin Prime—pressures great enough to crush elements together—and the scraping of the liquefied air of the planet against its metallic core. The sizes of Corusca gems increased with proximity to the core of Yavin. They could be found only in very select locations in the galaxy, and their vibrancy resulted in them becoming the namesake of the galactic capital: Coruscant.[/p][p]Corusca gems were mostly valued for their beauty. The way that light reflected inside a Corusca gem would make it seem as if it had a furnace within it. As a result there were many Corusca gem fisherman who made a living out of collecting the gems. Corusca gems were some of the hardest objects known to the galaxy, and had industrial as well as decorative applications. Large Corusca gems were mounted on drills and used for precision drilling when explosives could not be used.[/p][p]Jacen Solo and Ganner Rhysode are the only known characters in the Star Wars Universe to have used a Coursca Gem in the construction of their lightsabers.

Coursca Gems in Star Wars: The Old Republic can be rewarded for the successful completion of high level Treasure Hunting missions.

The easiest and surest way to farm these is with the 340 Treasure Hunting missions, Low Tide Recovery and Proper Prospecting. These usually yield 4-6 corusca gems and a few other crystals, artifacts, relics etc.
