Looking to craft silicon blocks in Dune: Awakening? You'll first need flour sand — and this guide walks you through how to get it in ridiculous quantities with zero risk involved.
Step 1: Unlock the Static Compactor
To start collecting flour sand efficiently, you must unlock the Static Compactor. This happens after completing the second trial in your Journey progression.

Once unlocked, you can craft the Static Compactor from Fremen components and begin farming.

Step 2: Find the Right Location
Head to Eastern Vermilius Gap, one of the best spots for flour sand. Look near the edge of open sands—avoid deep desert zones where Sandworm threat is high.

Bad Spot Example: far from solid ground with rising worm meter.

Good Spot: no worm aggro, safe and fast to farm.

Step 3: Harvest Efficiently
Equip your Static Compactor, aim at flour sand piles, and fire. This will yield thousands of units safely. Manual collection is slower and more dangerous.

Once gathered, combine flour sand with water to create silicon blocks and other crafting items. A full inventory can be collected in just minutes using this strategy.
