General

First, you need to assemble a Dowsing Rod.

  • It is used to locate veins of metal Ore.
  • When carrying one, a Dowsing Icon will allow the checking of the coordinate you are on.
  • Dowsing starts a Focus timer.

Tips n Tricks

  • Sometimes the absence of an ore is as important as its presence. If you find a gap in a vein of ore, it's quite probable that you have an intersection of rare ore!
  • Focus helps you dowse more often
  • Constitution helps you detect a larger area

Perception Required

a dash (-) next to a number means that number or possibly lower, and needs to be updated as discovered

Metal/Ore Type Unrecognized At Recognized At Vein Shape Other Metals Nearby
Copper N/A 0 spiral? or line or curves Tin, Zinc, Lead
Iron 1 2 Line
Tin 2 4 Blob on end of copper, found solo, found ironxcopper
Aluminum 2 5
Zinc 3 6 Ring Copper, Lead
Lead 3 7 Spot and Blob Copper, Zinc
Tungsten 4 (8)
Titanium (6) (10)
Lithium (7-) (13-) Square-ish, 50*55 coords
Antimony (7) (13-)
Strontium (7-) (14)
Silver (7) (15)
Magnesium (8-) (16-)
Platinum (13-) (24) Blob was found where aluminum met iron
Gold (15) (24)

Ore Shapes

  • Copper - Curved not always capped with another ore, but frequently is.
  • Iron - Straight diagonal line, 10 coords wide.
  • Lead - Blob with a ring of Zinc surrounding it
  • Platinum - Intersection of Aluminium and Iron, forms a small 10 co-ord wide blob (found one blob that's 20'ish across -Tut)
  • Strontium - 4 Point Diamond 50-55 co-ordinates NSEW
    • Not all points are always present
    • I now think its an offset grid, not a diamond
  • Zinc - Ring around a central lead blob (T8- 1 sample @65 coord radius from lead)

Notes

  • Copper joins Zinc Found in OE @ 414, 7104 to 420, 7109 ... Signs posted - by petrius 6 Apr 2017
  • Copper joins Lead Found in OE @ 587, 7227 ... Signs posted - by petrius 8 Apr 2017
  • Lead found in OE is 36 across and 35 top to bottom - by petrius 8 Apr 2017
