Silica Pearls are essential for crafting advanced tools, machines, and weaponry in ARK: Survival Ascended. Given that the new updates have altered some of the locations for finding these valuable resources, both veteran and beginner players should find this guide a handy reference for the best places to find Silica Pearls.
Best Silica Pearl Locations in ARK Survival Ascended
Silica Pearls are frequently located in the waters of icy coastal regions on the map. In the initial stages of the game, the most effective method to collect them is by exploring Beaver Dams.
