Mining tool that's not gated behind hammer/anvil please

You need a bit of Perception and Survival for HQ foraging.
High quality Rustroot + Water => Prospecting => Cassiterite + Chalcopyrite

Cassiterite, cassiterite everywhere.

I have prospected the surroundings of my base and found about 30 patches of cassiterite. And one single small patch of iron ochre. Not able to mine it though with str 50. Maybe it is just a bad RNG for me.

I found fucking lead EVERYWHERE. Like I had 15+ flags marked around my base all Lead with no other ore. Ended up having to get my copper and tin by travelling to someone else's cave and seeing they already mined out a location for me to pick at.
