The Sandrose is an interestingly-shaped rock that you can mine in Story of Seasons: Friends of Mineral Town. These can be found even in the early levels of the Lake Mine, making them one of the easier minerals to acquire.

How To Get Sandrose

Gems like Sandrose can only be found by breaking rocks with your Hammer in the mines. Just keep digging in the Lake Mine until you finally find some Sandrose!

These can usually be found on levels ending with the number 9, and on Level 255.

You’re also more likely to find a Sandrose if the floor level is made up of 3 digits or more (109, 169, 249, etc).

Tip: Upgrading the Hammer to the Cursed/Blessed or Mythic level can allow you to charge it and simultaneously break all the boulders on the map, saving you a lot of time.

Remember that you can only access the Lake Mine during Winter, when Kappa’s lake freezes over. In later stages of the game, though, you can find a Travel Stone on Level 255 of the Spring Mine which allows you to instantly teleport anywhere in Mineral Town.

Sandroses can be sold to either Zack or Huang for 60 G.

To sell your Sandrose to Zack, simply drop your gems into the Shipping Bin and wait for him to pick them up at 5:00 PM every day.

Selling your Sandrose via the Shipping Bin will count towards the list of shippable items you need to achieve for full completion.

This is important because shipping all possible items is a requirement for marrying either Kappa or the Harvest Goddess. You can track your progress by checking the Shipping List on your bookshelf.
