Overview
Silver Ore is one of the rarest refinement materials in Crimson Desert, found only in a handful of hard-to-reach caves. It is primarily used at the Blacksmith to upgrade jewelry (rings, necklaces, and other accessories) to higher quality tiers. The largest known deposit is hidden behind a waterfall at Three Saints Falls in the Hernand region.
How to Obtain
Silver Ore is gathered by striking deposits with a Pickaxe (purchased from the Provisioner's Shop in Hernand) or by using the Force Palm Attack. Unlike surface ores such as Iron Ore and Copper Ore, Silver Ore is not found on open cliff faces. Instead, it is located inside hidden caves that require specific skills to access.
To reach the primary Silver Ore deposit, you need two skills:
Stab (Level 1 minimum): Used to dash through the waterfall that conceals the cave entrance. Activate with R1 + Triangle (PlayStation), RB + Y (Xbox), or Shift + Right Click (keyboard).
Force Palm (automatically learned in Chapter 1): Used to destroy the boulder blocking the passage inside the cave.
Deposit Locations
Three Saints Falls (Hernand)
The largest and most reliable Silver Ore deposit in the game. Three Saints Falls is located north of Hernand City. The cave is hidden behind one of the waterfalls and contains enough deposits to yield 25 to 30 Silver Ore in a single visit.
How to Reach the Cave
Travel to Three Saints Falls, north of Hernand City.
Climb to the rock approximately halfway up the right-side waterfall. You need to reach the rock that directly touches the falling water.
Stand directly in front of the waterfall and execute the Stab skill. This dashes you through the water and into the cave behind it.
Inside the cave, destroy the large boulder blocking the deeper passage using Force Palm or a charged Turning Slash.
Follow the narrow cavern deeper until you reach the Silver Ore deposits at the end.
The deposits inside this cave respawn over time, so you can return periodically for repeated farming runs.
Location Summary
Location | Region | Yield Per Visit | Requirements | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
25-30 Silver Ore | Stab (Lv. 1), Force Palm | Hidden behind the right waterfall; best farming spot |
Uses
Silver Ore is used at the Blacksmith for refinement of the following equipment types:
Use | Details |
|---|---|
Jewelry | Rings, necklaces, and accessories; primary use for Silver Ore |
Swords, axes, spears, and other melee weapons | |
Metal chest and leg pieces | |
Metal Shields | All non-wooden shield types |
Jewelry upgrades require Silver Ore more heavily than other equipment types. Players focusing on accessory builds should prioritize Silver Ore farming.
Tips
Make sure you have the Stab skill at Level 1 before traveling to Three Saints Falls. Without it, you cannot pass through the waterfall.
Bring a Pickaxe for efficient mining. While Force Palm works as an alternative, the Pickaxe is faster for dedicated farming sessions.
Ensure you have enough inventory space before entering the cave. With 25 to 30 ore per visit, you do not want to leave ore behind.
Silver Ore deposits respawn over time. After clearing the cave, complete nearby quests or explore other areas, then return later for a fresh batch.
Silver Ore is among the rarest ores in the game. Stock up whenever you visit Three Saints Falls, even if you do not need jewelry upgrades immediately.
Excess Silver Ore can be sold to vendors for Silver currency if your jewelry is already fully refined.
Identifying Silver Ore
Silver Ore deposits appear as lighter-colored rock formations compared to Iron Ore (dark gray) and Copper Ore (greenish tint). Inside the Three Saints Falls cave, the silver deposits are clustered together at the deepest section, making them easy to spot once you reach the end of the cavern.
