In-Game Text"Now a miner, before he begins to mine the veins, must consider seven things, namely : the situation, the conditions, the water, the roads, the climate, the right of ownership, and the neighbours." – Georgius Agricola, de Re Metallica … but first of all the vein must be located. Prospecting allows you to search for suitable locations for conducting a mining operation. Prospecting DevicesEquipping a Prospecting Device allows you to Prospect. Prospecting allows you to see the locations of Well points and Ore Nodes which are hidden underground. When Prospecting a pink arrow will be above your head which will spin randomly until you get close enough to a Node for it to lock on and then it will point in the Node's general direction. Once you are close enough a Node will appear on the ground as a patch with brown, gray, or blue steaks running through it. Currently a Prospecting Device's Purity does not matter.
NodesThe initial signpost for a Mine Entrance or Well must be built on the appropriate Node with Prospect activated. NOTE: While a Copper Node and Iron Node look different, they are functionally the same.
