Learn how to get the Cryonic Artifact in Prospecting Roblox, where to find it, and how to use it to craft the Frostthorn Pendant.

With the latest Snowy Mountain Update, we have a new exotic mineral in prospecting: the Cryonic Artifact, valued at $100,000,000 per kg, which is way more than the Dinosaur Skull, priced at $50,000,000 per kg. This rare material only spawns in the Frozen Peak area, which you need to unlock after progressing through quests on the Snowy Mountains island. Because of its extremely low dig chance, it is now one of the hardest items to find in the game.
In this guide, we’ll explain how to unlock the Frozen Peak, where to find the Cryonic Artifact, its uses, and tips to improve your odds of getting it.

Step 1: Unlock Snowy Mountains Island

To begin, you need access to the Snowy Mountains:
- Travel to Caldera Island and talk to the Arctic Traveler NPC at the docks.
- Equip the Dragonflame Shovel and talk to the NPC again.
- The Dragonflame Shovel costs $400,000,000 at the Magma Furnace.
- This unlocks the Snowy Mountains island, where you can begin progression quests.

Step 2: Progress to Frozen Peak

You’ll need to complete quests on Snowy Mountains island to reach Frozen Peak:
- Repairing the Bridge -> Requires materials like Blue Ice, Titanium, and Glacial Quartz.
- Clearing the Path -> Requires Cobalt, Volcanic Core, and Vortessence.
After finishing both quests, you’ll unlock access to the Frozen Peak area, where the Cryonic Artifact spawns.
Step 3: Finding the Cryonic Artifact

- Location: Frozen Peak only
- Tier: Exotic Mineral
- Value: $100,000,000/kg
- Spawn Chance: Very rare; percentage chance per dig (1/n chance if under 1%)
Because the Cryonic Artifact is exotic, you’ll likely spend a lot of time grinding before you find it. Players often report needing hundreds of digs or using luck-boosting gear to increase their odds.
Tips To Increase Your Chances

- Use Luck Items: Equip luck-boosting accessories, potions, and gear to improve your chances.
- Frostbite Pan: Buy the Frostbite Pan from the Snowy Mountains merchant, it boosts exotic mineral chances.
- Stay at Frozen Peak: This is the only location where the Cryonic Artifact spawns.
- Consistency is Key: Digging often and being patient is the best strategy, as luck determines everything here.
