As a veteran Satisfactory player with countless hours spent scouring the game’s vast landscapes for precious resources, I can confidently say that the hunt for SAM ore has become my personal quest. With 19 resource nodes scattered across the map, it’s a challenge that keeps me coming back for more.

Here, I’ll guide you through all the locations of SAM ore in “Satisfactory”. These spots have been adjusted after the Patch 1.0.
