    I do know for the middle lake and river's ending in it... but when u re building in mountain zone near green myst .. nothing.
    Epic answer.. Since when has a mountain been made of sand.. Seriously? Do you think it would be standing still if it was made of a material that slides, glides and moves around when you walk on it.
    Sorry.. T'is just too stupid. If you explore, you shall find and no not all resources will be available to you. You should have thought of that before you settled.. It is mentioned multiple times in the About and the Feature list.

    Hey don't worry about them, you can find sand in a few places over in plains near the green mist. I'd like to give you coords but then everyone is going to be around there, i suggest you explore, when you are though keep your resource window open and see what else is around like basalt, chalk etc and mark down the coords for your future use.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sand_Mo..._%28Alabama%29 and for your information he never said the mountain was 'made of sand' did he? And yes you can find sand deposits in mountains carried there by galcial movements, also irl there are plenty of sand and gravel pits around a long distance from the water.

    We need sand! We need trees! We Need junk! Oh might gods of Xsyon I beseech the! Make the world like it was before the great sorrow, so that way I can sit and eat cereal while I watch my character eat cereal Honestly that may be a bit extreme but god forbid somebody trades/explores/conquer for what they need in a PA world. If you honestly want everything handed to you on a silver platter there are other games with instant gratification. Hell go play a single player game and use cheats!

    I mean ffs You really can't survive w/o sand? Then trade someone for it! Or do something more fun and slightly demented and stalk and kill someone for your mats, but do not pray to the impotent gods of Xsyon because you are to lazy to get something for yourself.

    And how much of that sand was actually made at the mountain. I bet ya the rate is below 5%..
    Fact is mountains don't create sand, they can obtain sand through other means. Such as glaciers. That wasn't what he said or wanted. He wanted sand in mountains, which is the exact opposite of what you would find on and in a mountain unless we have glaciers in-game, which we don't.

    Don't use wiki as a reference please.. I could look up special cases too.. Doesn't make it true as this case proves it.
    Sandstone is not sand. It is partly sand and consists of various minerals (minerals that if they weren't there the mountain wouldn't be possible and would be called a sand dune - hench the kind of fecking sand we're talking about, unless you have been able to create sand out of sandstone in-game (or even found sandstone..)

    Why the smart-ass comment? Because he wanted sand in places that usually do not have sand, in an obvious "I want to be self-sufficient'-way instead of accepting that not everything can be procured everywhere. (which has been said COUNTLESS of times on these boards as well as in the various official website pages..)

    There's nothing wrong with asking questions on a forum.. There is everything wrong with not doing a search inquiry or at least bother to thoroughly read the informations you have been given. (Almost like the ***** in-game asking how you do stuff.. Instead of asking, why not.. TRY.. Omg you have to think yourself.. Damn it, I see the problem.)

    Uneducated people frustrate me.

    "Sand is created from the weathering and erosion of rock and rock particles to a size that is between .06-2.0 mm in diameter. Sand deposits can be of quartz particles, gypsum particles, fractured obsidian, oolites, glauconite, shell or coral fragments, or other mineral or rock material."

    FYI there are many different types of sand and its more to do with the particle size or shape rather than what minerals it consists of. Sandstones are just cemented grains of 'sand'.

    I could go on and on about this, before you argue please please do some research and i'll even let you link a wiki or other sources if you so wish.

    So you went on and read all the rant answers to your question and you missed the one telling you where to find sand? You are proving yourself stupid here, you said it yourself.

    I'll try again: Explore river banks on the edges of green mist, plenty of sand there.

    I guess next question is exact coordinates? I can provide that as soon as I log into game in next few hours.
