All Prospecting Roblox Minerals Locations (Full Value Guide)

Prospecting on Roblox is all about digging into the world’s rivers, beaches, and volcanic sands to uncover valuable minerals. While beginners might stumble upon common finds like Pyrite or Silver, the real excitement comes from discovering rare, epic, or even Mythic ores worth millions. Each mineral has its own rarity tier, sell price per kilogram, and specific spots where it can be uncovered.

This guide breaks down every mineral in Prospecting Roblox, its rarity, value, and exact locations — so you always know where to pan for the best finds.

How Minerals Work in Prospecting

Before diving into the list, here’s what you need to know:

  • Rarity: Minerals are divided into tiers — Common, Uncommon, Rare, Epic, Legendary, Mythic, and Exotic. Higher rarity means greater value but harder to find.
  • Location-Based: Some minerals only appear in unique areas like Frozen Peak, Infernal Heart, or Rubble Creek.
  • Pricing: Every mineral has a fixed cash/kg rate. Heavier finds sell for more.
  • Progression: Rare ores often require advanced equipment and are tied to quests or crafting recipes.

Note: Mineral prices and locations can shift slightly with updates. For example, Copper and Luminum have had different listed values across recent patches. Always check in-game tooltips for the most current numbers.

How Luck Works (and How to Boost It)

Luck is one of the most important mechanics for finding rare minerals. Each time you pan, the game rolls rarity multiple times equal to your Luck value and keeps the best roll. More Luck means more chances at rarer ores — though it doesn’t guarantee them. Luck may also be partially weakened on some rolls so that Common minerals never vanish entirely.

Ways to boost Luck:

  • Use better pans with higher Luck stats
  • Enchant pans with Lucky (+5 Luck) or Blessed (+10 Luck)
  • Craft items that increase Luck
  • Drink Luck potions (time-limited boosts)
  • Stand near a Luck Totem (x2 Luck boost, sold at Shard Merchant/Shop)
  • Play with friends for a small bonus per friend
  • Redeem codes that grant Luck bonuses (these stack by value, not by time)

Mineral Modifiers (Extra Value Multipliers)

When you dig up a mineral, it can sometimes come with a modifier that boosts its value:

  • Shiny: 1.2× Value
  • Pure: 1.35× Value
  • Glowing: 1.6× Value
  • Scorching: 2× Value
  • Irradiated: 2.5× Value
  • Iridescent: 3.5× Value

Enchant synergy: Unstable (+25% modifier boost; 2% chance roll) and Prismatic (+10%; from the Traveling Merchant) increase your odds of finding modified minerals.

Keep or Sell? (Crafting, Quests, and Enchanting)

Not every mineral should be sold right away. Some, like Ruby and Emerald, are needed early for quests, while Aurorite and Aetherite are key for enchanting (currently, Aetherite functions the same as Aurorite for enchant chance). Always check the Blacksmith anvil for crafting recipes before selling, and right-click minerals in your inventory to lock them if you want to keep them safe from accidental sales.
