Finding ore in Vintage Story can be challenging, so to help you out here is how the game spawns ore. Throughout this page, the numbers shown will all be in absolute terms. In the world when you press "V" it shows you the relative coordinates. To find the absolute dig down to the mantle and take that number, subtract 3, and add it to 256. That number will be the absolute value for y=0 in your world.
Ore depth
All ores are uniformly distributed through the ground.
Shallow ores
Shallow ores stop at a certain depth.
ore | Y min | Y max |
---|---|---|
Lignite | 123 | 236 |
Surface Copper | 236 | 251 |
Deep ores
Deep ores go from the mantle up to a Y max.
ore | Y max |
---|---|
Bituminous Coal | 179 |
Saltpeter | 205 |
Gold | 256 |
Silver | 256 |
Deep Copper | 154 |
Sphalerite | 256 |
Cassiterite | 154 |
[Bismuthinite] | 218 |
Limonite | 243 |
Lapis | 205 |
Diamond | 51 |
Emerald | 59 |
Galena | 256 |
Sulfer | 256 |
Ore Specifics
Gold and Silver
Gold and silver only spawn in layers of quartz. Following a quartz layer is a good way to find them.
Cassiterite
There's a rare chance to come across a massive cassiterite deposit. If you do consider yourself extremely lucky, since the smallest of these deposits are larger than the largest of the normal sized deposits.
