I have yet to ever see the little radar-ping from using rustroot extract, and exploratory mining suggested on threads has just had me smack a cave wall maybe twice at most before getting cave-in'd and having to wait a day while the concussion wears off. do I just have garbage luck, or am I doing something wrong? is there supposed to be an easier/less frustrating way to do this?
Higher quality extract sees a bit farther. Or just prospect more over a larger area.
At this point in the world you could just look in caves and find where other people have partially mined out ore veins.
