Pure Quartz Locations & Farming Guide
Snow-region material needed for Circuit Boards and Pal Metal.
Pure Quartz is harvested from quartz rocks in snowy and icy terrain. It's the key ingredient for Circuit Boards, which unlock most late-game tech.
What it's used for
| Recipe |
|---|
| Circuit Board — Pure Quartz ×4 + Polymer ×2 |
| Pal Metal Ingot — Ore ×4 + Paldium Fragment ×2 + Pure Quartz ×1 |
| Pure Quartz Quarry — unlocks passive production |
Where to find it
Look for pure quartz rocks in the snowy regions — the Astral Mountains and the Frostallion area are the main early sources.
