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 finding Plathinum and Ironyum. Fortunately, locating these resources is straightforward.

This guide details how to quickly obtain Plathinum and Ironyum in The Sims 4:

To find Plathinum and Ironyum, simply locate areas with rocks and dirt mounds – parks are ideal. Pause the game to carefully scan the environment. Once you spot a suitable mound, interact with it to dig. It might take a few attempts, but you'll eventually unearth both Plathinum and Ironyum, unlocking the next quest stage: crafting the Time Travel Component.

If rocks and mounds are scarce, speeding up in-game time can encourage their faster generation. However, avoid prolonged periods of accelerated time to prevent missing digging opportunities.
