Yea I feel like I've searched everywhere at this point. Still haven't found a single piece.

Ive noticed there is one glass type that is alluding me, Vintage Glass. Is this possible to find in vanilla?

The trick to finding big patches of Phyllite with ease is just digging in straight lines at y level 4-6 for thousands of blocks in one direction (ive found that almost all of my Phyllite deposites were located under bodies of water). When you dig a few thousand blocks in one direction at y4-6, start an adjacent strip mine 500 blocks to left or right and continue back and forth in a zig zag pattern. The reason this works so well is because Phyllite spawns in large chunks of 400x650 compared to Kimberlite (which only generates in small chunks of around 60x70 blocks) so finding Phyllite is relatively easy if you smith around 8 or so steel picks and just bring temporal gears to regain sanity whilst at the mantle layer, it just takes a little time. I have found around a full trunk of Phyllite rocks worth using this strategy and have use around 12 steel picks per Phyllite chunk I find.

I finally have an answer for this. Phyllite sand DOES spawn naturally in vanilla. I have recently found over two stacks underground in a Phyllite rock chunk (the sand wont spawn on the surface like other sands). You can only find it in those little gravel pits with stalactites in them, the sand is located under the gravel layer and you can yield just around 30-40 sand per pit. Hope this helps.

Just make a hole in the ground, fill it with one block of ebony wood. Since ebony burns the longest out of all logs in the game (for 110s). Throw your trash in the hole with the ebony log on fire and they will delete the items in 20seconds or less.

Sorry I thought I clicked send on my reply last week. I took an extensive look at that page before made this post and couldn't find any useful information on some of the ores marked in red. This is probably due to their lack of uses in the vanilla game, but in modded VS phosphorite is quite useful for soil fertilizer so I just had to trial and error search until I found a couple ore depots. I found that Phosphorite spawned in high abundance in the south, and noticed it only spawned below deep lakes or rivers (if using the river mod). hope this info proves useful for future players who try looking for this illusive mineral

Where do rare ores like Phosporite spawn? Not sure if this has ever been addressed on the forums or not since I did a quick search and couldn't find anything on it. Any info would be appreciated
