Icium Material is of those items that you may have trouble farming in Monster Hunter Rise. You might stop looking for them considering how hard they are to find, but it is a very vital material in upgrading your cold weapons and armor. The in-game description says “Precious metal from the Frost Islands. Shines bright white when the light catches it”. So keeping that in mind, here’s how to get Icium Material in Monster Hunter Rise (MH Rise).
How to Get Icium Material in Monster Hunter Rise (MH Rise)?
To find Icium Material in Monster Hunter Rise (MH Rise) you need to explore the main camp and sub-camp of Frost Islands. You can get Icium Material from the white and blue Mining Outcrops on the map.

The red squares are locations on the main camp, and the orange ones will guide you to the sub-camp Mining Outcrop locations. You can use your Wirebug to easily get in and out of the sub-level.
By now you might know that Mining Outcrops hold different minerals and ores in the Monster Hunter universe. And there are different types of these Mining Outcrops that give you different types of drops.
