Find Multiple Ore Deposits Efficiently

Scan Systematically

Use the Deposit Scanner to map out your underground resource landscape. Hold it and sweep your view across different areas—the dual antennas will flash when pointed toward nearby deposits. Mark promising locations mentally or with waypoints so you can return to them later.

Prioritize High-Value Deposits

Not all deposits are equally valuable. Scan multiple locations before committing to a mining rig setup. The Deposit Scanner's flash intensity and frequency can help you gauge deposit richness—stronger signals often indicate larger or more concentrated veins. Focus your drilling infrastructure on the most productive areas first.

Use Map Integration

If you're using map mods compatible with Create Rock & Stone, discovered deposits can be marked directly on your world map. This creates a visual reference for planning your mining network and helps you avoid redundant scanning. Organize your mining rigs in clusters around high-density deposit zones for efficient resource collection.
