From what I understand of prospecting, once you fail metal detection on a spot you cannot see any metal there until you've let the map unload. There's always a chance a detection will turn up nothing.

If you've gone back to that spot at a later date and retested I've no clue though. The fabled ghost node I suppose.

It does.
Maybe it's pointing to different points in the node?
The node is larger than 1 tile definitely.

Metal doesn't "spawn".
