Ancient Lava sits in one volcanic sanctuary and nowhere else. Here is every pool, the heat gear and mining level you need, and what the blue lava builds.

The short answer
Every Ancient Lava pool we have mapped sits inside No. 2 Wildlife Sanctuary, on the volcanic terrain near Mt. Obsidian. Bring heat protection and a Pal with Mining level 2 — each pool has 4,500 HP and respawns every 30 minutes. No Pal drops it, and there is no source outside the sanctuary. Four recipes consume it at 30 apiece, including Air Walker Mk II and the Ring of Trust.

What you need to take Ancient Lava
- Work neededMining Lv 2
- Node HP4,500
- Respawn30 min
Mining level decides how fast a node comes apart, and some resources set a floor as well: this one needs Mining 2 before a Pal can work it at all. Ranked from the work-suitability data, where the Palworld 1.0 ceiling is 8.
What else is in No. 2 Wildlife Sanctuary
Everything here sits in the same place as the Ancient Lava. If the trip costs you something to make, make it count.

The Ring of Trust needs one sanctuary run
It takes 30 Ancient Lava from No. 2 and 10 Beautiful Flower, which you can buy from the Caravan Leader or take off any of the twenty-odd Pals that drop it. Only the Lava half sends you into restricted ground: the flowers drop from twenty-odd Pals, most of them at 100%, and the Caravan Leader sells them outright. Worth batching with an Ancient Bark trip anyway, since Bark is in No. 1.
