Unidentified whitish stone

A type of fine, whitish stone could be found on an archipelago continent on the Core Worlds planet Alderaan. By the time of the Republic Era, the stone was often used as gravel on Alderaan. However, members of the Rodian species regarded the substance as a precious gemstone, as the wavelengths it gave off made the stone seem iridescent and glittering.
In 40 BBY,Star Wars: Timelines places the events of Master & Apprentice in 40 BBY. jewel thieves Pax Maripher and Rahara Wick took a load of the whitish stone from Alderaan's continent and stored it in their Gozanti-class cruiser, the Meryx, intending to eventually sell it on the Outer Rim planetStar Wars: Galaxy's Edge: Traveler's Guide to Batuu Rodia after a few weeks had passed. After their endeavor, the pair enabled the Meryx scanner-blocking field to depart the world undetected.
