Flour Sand in Dune: Awakening is a rare and dangerous item primarily found in the Vermillius Gap region, signaling the presence of sandworms.
Flour Sand locations change weekly after the Coriolis Storm, with white dust clouds indicating collectible areas.
Most Flour Sand sites are near drum sand, which attracts sandworms, but occasional safe areas exist in the northern or southern edges of the region.
Using the compactor tool, unlocked after the second Trial of Aql, and cooperating with others is the recommended method to safely gather Flour Sand.
Team strategy involves luring sandworms away with thumpers while gathering the sand efficiently.
Solo players can secure Flour Sand by storing a backup vehicle, using a fast vehicle with boosters near the sand, and fleeing to safety once the sandworm appears.
The Bene Gesserit's dash skill may provide an escape route for players close to safety, but it's situational.
