== Usage == <!--T:4-->
== Usage == <!--T:4-->
Special: The pickaxe is the primary tool used in [[mining]] [[ore Deposits|ores]], but the prospector's pick or propick is the primary tool used to detect/locate ore deposits.
For an in-depth guide on how to use the Propick, check the [[Mining]] page, prospecting section.
* To prospect: press the left mouse button with the propick in an active hotbar slot to "hit" the [[rock]]. When the block breaks, a sample is taken. A detailed description of the prospecting process is available on the [[mining]] page.


=== Harvesting === <!--T:5-->
=== Block-Breaking === <!--T:5-->
Propicks can be used to harvest [[rock]], which include [[ores]] and mineral materials. When blocks are broken, [[rock#harvesting|rock]], [[rock#harvesting|small stones]] or ores contained in chunks of stone will be dropped. Ores within rock be crushed with a [[hammer]] in the crafting grid to obtain smeltable nuggets.
Propicks can be used to mine blocks, which include [[Ore Deposits|ores]] and mineral materials. However, when blocks are broken, [[rock#harvesting|rock]], [[rock#harvesting|small stones]] or ores normally contained in the chunks of stone will not be dropped, this means the block is destroyed without any yield.
 
=== Combat ===  <!--T:6-->
Attacking a mob (melee combat): place the tool in an active hotbar slot and press or hold left mouse button to strike the target.
