Saltpeter forms as a white-ish coating on the surface of natural rock in caves. The {{ll|Mining#Prospecting_.28Systematic_Method.29|prospecting pick}} doesn't detect/report saltpeter's potential presence. There are no particular rock types saltpeter prefers to form on. Pay attention while exploring caves. White-looking rock might actually be a thin layer of saltpeter. | |||

* Saltpeter can generate at or below 80% of {{ll|https://wiki.vintagestory.at/index.php/Ore_Deposits#Sea_level|sealevel}} (which depends on the worldHeight). It's equally likely to generate at elevation Y 1 as at Y 71 (0 ± 0.8<ref>Line 11 of %AppData%\Roaming\ Vintagestory\assets\survival\worldgen\deposits\mineralore\saltpeter.json</ref>). Therefore, a player can expect to find no saltpeter until below elevation Y 88. | |||
* The average radius of a saltpeter deposit is 0 - 20 blocks (10 ± 10<ref>Line 10 of %AppData%\Roaming\ Vintagestory\assets\survival\worldgen\deposits\mineralore\saltpeter.json</ref>). | |||

* Saltpeter gets 7 triesPerChunk<ref>Line 4 of %AppData%\Roaming\ Vintagestory\assets\survival\worldgen\deposits\mineralore\saltpeter.json</ref>: the game tries 7 times to generate a deposit in each map chunk before giving up. | |||

Breaking a saltpeter coating drops a chunk of saltpeter powder. A hand works but a {{ll|shovel|shovel}} is the most effective tool for mining saltpeter. | |||
