>>13342>Pretty lowRough... It should run well unless you are potato gaming.
>But can vein concentrations be small? In pic related, it seems like the iron deposit is quite tiny, with (most probably) High being the strongest with decent and poor surrounding it.Depends on the ore. Iron for example is notorious for having more than you'll realistically need as a single player because they're also massive IRL. They get big, and through a mod that let me crawl in 1 block tall spaces it made me feel very claustrophobic. Had to use the bit of coal I had to mark on the walls because I was getting lost and turned around once my bags were full. Can only imagine how FUN it would be to do that with cave-ins enabled.
If you're getting a high reading chances are you'll run right into it. So start mining a bunch of shafts going down in that area and use the short range search on your propick every so often. Depends on how much patience you have and metal for spare pickaxes. Could also prospect around some more for very high and ultra high readings which is the best you can get since you're basically discovering a heatmap. Some ores like cassiterite (tin) top out at decent to high.
As for what this could look like, for example picrel: using this debug mod and a propick, this area is a very high for iron and it shows. All at different elevations, some overlapping eachother, all the way down to mantle. Cassiterite may be harder to find because it spawns in smaller veins but there's far more of them scattered around, not as easy to just trip into and you'll need a lot more digging and propick usage. The iron in orange read as very high, and tin read as decent.
>black bronzeGood luck to you on that, the color is my favorite but I have no idea how to really search well for gold and silver to get it in the quantity you need for armor. You could also try looking for zinc and bismuth for that type of bronze too, IIRC it's a little more durable than tin bronze.
