If you are in an area with at least one [[ | If you are in an area with at least one [[Sedimentary Rock]] layer (except [[Bauxite]]) use the main Prospecting Pick mode (density mode - the other one doesn't show halite). If you find any halite readings, it might be an area prone to spawn a halite deposit called "salt dome." Find the area with the best readings and around, and go caving or making vertical tunnels until you are in the bottommost sedimentary rock layer, or in the first rock layer that's not sedimentary. Then, go making horizontal tunnels in that level, following the rock type you're in. Once you find a pink rock, that's it, eureka! | ||
A salt dome starts at the sedimentary layer and goes until the mantle level. It has so much salt that you might share it with other people and never run out, in multiplayer. In singleplayer, once you find it, you're set with salt forever. | A salt dome starts at the sedimentary layer and goes until the mantle level.
