How to Find All Elements in The Sims 4
To find all Elements in The Sims 4, your Sim needs to collect crystals and metals, send them to the Geo Council for analysis, and receive elements back in the mail. This collection is part of the base game and requires both exploration and patience to complete.
The Elements Collection is one of the more structured collectibles, as each item must be processed before it becomes part of your collection.
What Are Elements?
Elements are collectible items extracted from crystals and metals. They come in small display cases and can be placed in your Sim’s home once discovered.
- They are obtained through analysis, not direct collection
- Each one has a unique name and appearance
- There are 15 Elements in total
This makes them slightly more involved than other collectibles.
How to Get Elements
You cannot find Elements directly in the world. Instead, you need to process other collectibles.
- Dig up crystals and metals from rocks
- Open your Sim’s inventory
- Select an item and choose Send to Geo Council (costs §20)
After a short time, the Element will be mailed back to your Sim.
Step 1: Collect Crystals and Metals
To start the process:
- Search for dig spots in worlds like Willow Creek and Oasis Springs
- Break open rocks to find crystals and metals
Not every item will produce a new Element, so you will need to keep collecting.
Step 2: Send Items to the Geo Council
Once you have crystals or metals:
- Click on the item in your inventory
- Select Send to Geo Council
This is the only way to convert them into Elements.
Step 3: Check the Mail
After sending items:
- Wait for the delivery
- Check your mailbox
- Collect your Element
If you already have that Element, you will receive a duplicate.

Tips to Complete the Elements Collection Faster

- Keep track of which Elements you already have
- Be prepared for duplicates and keep trying
This collection relies heavily on randomness, so persistence is key.
Can You Buy Elements?
No, Elements cannot be purchased directly. They must be obtained through the Geo Council process.
What Happens When You Complete the Collection?
Completing the Elements Collection gives you a full set of display items and contributes to your overall collectibles progress. While there is no major gameplay reward, it is satisfying to complete and great for decorative displays.
Summary
To find all Elements in The Sims 4, collect crystals and metals, send them to the Geo Council, and keep checking your mail until you complete the full set. It is a slower collection, but easy to work on alongside normal gameplay.
