The Crystal Continent was a continent of Skaro which appeared to be made of glass. It was located on the dark side of Skaro.
The ground below the upper layer of soil had large seams of combustible material that burned for centuries, constantly heating the glass-like surface. The surface was a mix of solidified and molten glass. Creatures would often be trapped in the molten glass, where they would stay forever visible to others.
The Crystal Continent was navigated by an Anti-Dalek Force expedition to the dark side of Skaro. (PROSE: The Dark Side of Skaro [+]Loading...["The Dark Side of Skaro (feature)"])
The Crystal Continent no longer existed in the era after the Last Great Time War, having been lost in geographic upheaval from Skaro's long history of war. Not enough evidence survived for Dalek historians to place the Continent in relation to modern Skaro geography.
