The Silicate is a resource in ARK: Survival Evolved's DLC Extinction and can be used in recipes as a replacement for  Silica Pearls.

Gathering

Can be found in clumps throughout the Forbidden Zone and can be harvested with a  Hatchet,  Chainsaw or  Ankylosaurus. The Silicate rocks also provide  Stone,  Flint and  Obsidian.

Bugs

The Silicate is highly bugged for some reason.

• Reloading a save will erase all Silicate stored in inventories.
• Do not upload Silicate into an obelisk. It will remain, but will be invisible. You can not take the silicate out of the obelisk because of this, essentially it will waste your item slots.
• Silicate can not be spawned with the GFI console command, unless the player already has some silicate in their inventory.
