Resources are an important aspect in Ark and Ark Genesis has brought in more of them. In our Ark Genesis Resources Guide, we will be taking you through all the Ark Genesis resources and also how to acquire them. From metal to polymer, concealed gas balls to blue, green or red gems this is your guide to them all, and more.

Where To Find Different Ark Genesis Resources, Map, Locations

As I mentioned above, resources re very important in Ark Genesis and players will need them to craft items. The following is what you need to know about the different locations of all the Ark Genesis resources. Not only we will be stating what resources you will find, but we will also list down the Ark Genesis resource map coordinates, so you can find them easily.

Lava Biome

You will find Element in the Lava Biome. It will be at 27.3-73.6 GPS coordinates. The Element is basically red-colored rocks protruding from the ground, which is different from how it looks in the Luna Biome. In the Lava Biome, you will also find obsidian, metal, and crystal basically everywhere.

Luna Biome

In the Luna Biome, the Element resembles a glowy green growth on the rock sides and is found at 19.25- 7.4 map coordinates in Ark Genesis. There is a cavern there which you will find brimming with it. You will also find Obsidian in this cavern.

If you need a lot of electronics, then you can use a chainsaw and gas to kill the Tech Rexes on the Luna Biome, and you will get an ample amount.

Ocean Biome

Pearls is another much sought after resource in the game. You will need to head to the Ocean Biome to acquire them. You will find them at 19.5 – 52.7 GPS coordinates.

However, there are no fixed Co-ords for the pearls, as they are basically everywhere on this biome. Go up to the clams you find and just get hold of the pearls. You will also get some fish along with it.

Now the Ocean Biome is a treasure trove of resources. If you harvest the corals found on the ocean floor, you will get resources like stone and flint. It won’t be a lot but a decent amount to suffice your needs. You can also get fiber and berries from the underwater plants you find.

Oil is another resource that you get in the Ocean Biome. The GPS coordinates for it are 25.5-44.8. You will find some big grey rocks here which you will need to harvest to acquire the oil.

If you have the ability to get to the top of the rock pillars in the Ocean Biome and do not want to go to any other biomes, then you will be able to acquire some metal there. There are also some white rocks protruding out of the ground there. Do not mistake them for crystals. These are salt rocks. You can also find crystals in the area but the very first white rocks you find on the top are just salt.

While you are swimming around in the waters, you will find an arch made out of rocks. If you can get up there you will find a decent amount of metal. If you go all the way around the top, you will find plenty more resources such as stone, flint, wood, thatch and fiber.

At GPS coordinates 55.54 of the Ocean Biome, if you are looking for gems whether blue or green or red, you will find all of them down there on the ocean floor. They are all just waiting to be harvested. There are also underwater caves from which you can harvest resources like metal, crystal and obsidian.

Bog Biome

The Bog Biome is a much easier place from where you can get metal resources. At GPS coordinates 54.3- 72.2, you will find all the quality metal resource you want and without any fear of damage as in the Lava Biome.

In the Bog Biome, at 66.8-63.4 GPS coordinates, you will find a huge tree around you will find a good amount of metal. Now if you are looking for Mushrooms and fungal wood, you will find them at 61.66 coordinates. They are all over the area for you to harvest.

You will find another large tree at 54.79 in this biome, where you will find more metal along with some crystal. At coordinates 59.83 on the map, you will find bio-toxin gas balls and sap. The resource is not available in great amounts there but still, you find some.

Arctic Biome

The Arctic Biome is the next one we will be focusing on. The resources in this biome are pretty scattered everywhere. We will tell you the coordinates for each one so you can know where to find them.

At 71.23, you will get obsidian and oil. At 70.6 – 33.1 you will get metal. Be careful of the avalanches in this area though as they will kill you. At 62-33, you will get obsidian, oil and some metal. On the main mountain, at 67-37 you will find more metal resources, along with obsidian, flint and stone. On the same mountain at 76.5 – 32.4, you will get quite a big supply of crystals.

Hexagons

Now lastly, Hexagons are pretty much high priority when it comes to resources. You will get a pretty hefty amount of Hexagons (1000) whenever you fix glitches in the games, which you can spot by the purple spotlights coming out of them. There are also obelisks that you will find on the maps, from where you can get quests. They have three difficulty levels to choose from. When you complete a quest you will receive, Hexagons as your reward. You can use these Hexagons to purchase items you require, in the Hexagon Exchange.

That is all for our Ark Genesis Resources guide with tips on the resources and the resource map coordinates. If you are interested in learning more about the game then you can check out our beginner’s guide that has useful tips and tricks for everyone.
