Jewel Mountains of Krypton
Kryptonian mountain range composed of crystalline rock and gems. The Jewel Mountains are considered by some as a tourist destination and are visited by Superman and Lyla Lerrol. (S No. 141, Nov. 1960: Superman's Return to Krypton)
At least part of the Jewel Mountains were thought to have formed by the carcasses of gigantic crystal birds that flew to the location to perish deep in Krypton's past. It is from these mountains that the raw material for "Jewel" Kryptonite may be obtained. (Act No. 310, Mar 1964: "Secret of Kryptonite Six!")
The Jewel Mountains were discovered by Bor-Ak. (S No. 164, Oct 1963: "The Fugitive from the Phantom Zone")
