Essential minerals like , Obsidian , and Crystal are primarily clustered in high-elevation areas and deep canyons to offset the difficulty of the desert heat.
Use community-sourced maps (e.g., ARK Wiki, Dododex) to compile GPS coordinates.
Every major mountain peak on Scorched Earth contains clusters of metal. The blue obelisk mountain is particularly dense.
These are found in the shallow sections of the central river and the various oases. Unlike other maps, you don't need to dive deep; they are often visible from the shore.
These are much rarer. Your best bet is harvesting the corpses of Deathworms. Hunting these beasts in the Great Desert is the most reliable way to gather the materials needed for Tek-tier gear.
Small pockets of water exist in the north and south. The "Green Obelisk" area is the most famous, serving as a primary hub for starting tribes. Industrial Essentials: Metal and Obsidian
