Where To Find Plathinum & Ironyum in The Sims 4 Blast From the Past Event

Unlocking the "Inventing the Past" quest in The Sims 4's Blast from the Past event requires locating Plathinum and Ironyum. Fortunately, this is a straightforward process.

This guide explains how to quickly find these resources:

To obtain Plathinum and Ironyum, simply locate areas with rocks and dirt mounds – parks are ideal. Pause the game to carefully scan your surroundings. Once you spot a suitable mound, interact with it to dig. It might take a few attempts, but you'll eventually unearth the necessary resources.

If you're struggling to find dig spots, speeding up in-game time can help generate more rocks and mounds. However, avoid leaving the game sped up for extended periods to prevent missing opportunities to dig.
