Raw Quartz is an ore gathered from a node and processed into Quartz Crystals or Silica. It also supports Converter recipes for Copper Ore and Caterium Ore, while the optional Cheap Silica alternate recipe is available only after that optional unlock. The bottleneck is accessible node output and the extraction rate your chosen node purity supports.
Filter a resource, then select a marker or location below for its purity, elevation and coordinates. The map is hosted here.

How to farm
Use the on-page resource map and filter by Raw Quartz. Inspect node purity, choose an accessible node, then extract it with a Miner. The map shows the standard layout; in version 1.2 randomized worlds, match the world settings before using node locations.
Before you go
A Miner and a reachable Raw Quartz node.
Unlock the processing recipe and machine you plan to use.
Open the on-page resource map and filter for Raw Quartz.
Inspect the listed node purities and select an accessible node.
Place the correct Miner on the node and connect power.
Move extracted ore by belt or vehicle to your factory.
Use a Constructor for the Quartz Crystal or Silica recipe, or a Converter for the listed ore conversion recipes.
For Cheap Silica, first obtain that optional alternate recipe unlock, then use its specified machine.
Farming tips
Size extraction and transport around the chosen node's purity and the receiving machine demand.
Avoid starting more processing lines than the node can feed.
Repeat, collect and use
Check miner output, transport, and processing demand; expand the chain at whichever stage limits the flow.
Common mistakes
Searching for a manufactured Quartz Crystal deposit instead of Raw Quartz.
Assuming the optional Cheap Silica recipe is available from the start.
When to stop or switch
Stop adding extraction or processing when the intended consumer has a dependable supply.
