Pure Quartz Farming Guide: Power Your Palworld Endgame Circuit Boards

As Palworld’s endgame ramps up, crafting more advanced tech means you’ll be chasing rarer resources. If a weapon, gadget, or crafting station needs electricity, you’ll almost certainly run into Circuit Boards—and the only crafting input for Circuit Boards is Pure Quartz. Because of that, getting serious production of Pure Quartz is step one if you want your Pals manufacturing gear for you.

Checklists

This guide walks you through everything you need to know about locating Pure Quartz, including the best places to mine it in Palworld.

Key takeaway: Pure Quartz is the sole material used for Circuit Boards, so you’ll want to mine it in bulk to keep your electric-based crafting chain running.

Pure Quartz Locations

Pure Quartz is commonly described as something you’ll find in snowy fields and similar cold environments. Coal, by contrast, is tied more closely to hot desert regions. For Pure Quartz, that means the colder parts of the map are your priority.

There’s also an important limitation: Pure Quartz isn’t a guaranteed drop. It’s only dropped by certain high-power Pals—specifically Jetragon, Astegon, and Frostallion Noct. Because farming those Pals isn’t a particularly safe or efficient routine, the most dependable approach is to locate Quartz in the wild and set up mining there.

So, what should you look for? If you spot a jagged black rock in a snowy region, it’s likely Pure Quartz. There are two cluster points where these rocks show up in abundance, making them strong candidates for establishing a mining colony. The coordinates are roughly -213, 250 and -257, 391.

Both areas can support a mining setup, but they’re especially useful because you can create a self-sustaining operation: deploy strong mining Pals, secure dependable food, add a Hot Spring, bring in Pals to handle resource movement, and build storage so the output doesn’t bottleneck.

Set Up a Mining Colony at the Best Quartz Clusters

1. Choose one of the two Quartz cluster areas: roughly -213, 250 or -257, 391.
2. Plant mining infrastructure: deploy your top mining Pals and build a settlement designed to keep running without constant babysitting.
3. Make the colony sustainable: establish a reliable food source, include a Hot Spring, and use Pals to transport materials.
4. Add storage: ensure you have enough storage capacity to handle continuous mining output.

Southern Cluster Details

The southernmost of the two mining areas sits on top of a small hill that’s fairly secluded. Some wild Pals can spawn there, but the spot is isolated enough that it remains a viable place to establish a camp.

Bring Cold Resistance for Your First Visit

Before you head into this region, plan for danger. You’ll want cold-resistant armor for your first venture, since the wild Pals in the area tend to be in the mid-30s for level. That makes the region hazardous unless you’re prepared.
