Sims 4 Blast: Uncover Platinum & Ironyum Ore Treasures

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 shows you 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 the environment. Once you spot a suitable spot, interact with it to dig. It might take a few attempts, but you'll eventually unearth the necessary resources.

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.
