It is highly recommended that players has Focus Food, Prospecting Axe and Prospecting Kits. While it is possible to prospect without a kit or focus food, it is recommended that prospecting kits at the minimum be use with the prospecting axe. When prospecting kits are used, the glass jars are returned but not the jugs of water used to make the kits. After the kit is used, a prospecting grid will appear, similar to Ecology survey kits. Solid grey area means no ore is in the area. Possible ore patches will display as a red area. Since the red area is not exact location, the player is advised to prospect around the red area to find the exact location of the ore.
