Pure Quartz Farming Calculator

Set a target, enter a farming spot, and see exactly how much Pure Quartz you need, how many runs it takes, and your quartz per hour — for manual runs or an automated mining base. Compare up to five locations to find the fastest. Everything updates as you type.

How Pure Quartz farming works in 1.0

What it's for

Pure Quartz is the backbone of the electric tech tree. Its headline use is the Circuit Board (4 Pure Quartz + 2 Polymer at a Production Assembly Line), and circuit boards gate most late-game electrical structures, factory lines and high-tier gear — so you end up needing a lot of it.

How you mine it

You need a Metal Pickaxe or better to break the nodes efficiently. Nodes respawn on a roughly one in-game day cycle, so the fastest supply is a base built inside a node cluster with two or three Mining Pals collecting passively while you do other things.

Level, run or automate

Work suitability is a 1–10 scale in 1.0, and a higher Mining level means faster breaks and more passive yield. Manual runs give burst supply; an automated base gives a steady trickle — this calculator models both, and the automated side discounts for real-world pathfinding and transport losses.

This calculator is a planning aid: it does the arithmetic on the numbers you enter (node counts, yields and times vary by spot, tools and Pals, and node respawn is a community-estimated ~1 in-game day). Treat the outputs as estimates, not exact game values. Formulas are shown beside each result. Your spot is remembered in this browser — the node count, times and carry limit you type, plus your comparison rows (name, nodes, cycle, and your own yield if you changed ours), are saved locally so you don't retype them next visit. Nothing is sent to a server and nothing identifies you; clearing your browser data removes it. Your current inventory is shared with our other Palworld tools in this browser, so you enter it once — it carries the date you entered it, and we ask rather than assume once it is a few days old. Your target is deliberately not saved: a goal is a decision about this session, and a stale one would sit silently behind every figure below.
