The mage can transmute a precious or rare substance, such as gold or diamond, into a common substance, such as wood or mud.

• Practice: Patterning
• Action: Instant
• Duration: Prolonged (one scene)
• Aspect: Vulgar
• Cost: None

This spell is like Transmute Earth p. 200, except that it can be cast on precious substances or materials that are rare or valuable (bearing metaphysical weight based on the importance the mage’s culture assigns to them). The caster cannot alter the substance’s state (liquid or solid) unless he combines the casting with Lesser Transmogrification p. 201.
