Update: I have checked the entirety of 6 chunks in the area where i marked in the start of the post. Not 1 piece of iron to be found. I simply gave up and started running far away. I managed to find a High Hemalite 4.61% On my way down my first shaft I found Huge amounts of Rich Hemalite. Thanks for all the help guys. Borax here I come

I forgot to mention that I already have multiple "shafts" leading down to Y-level 5 in the middle of my Decent readings. If I am correct there is only Peridote down there which should be able to spawn iron? I have prospected with node search all the way down and built out tunnels in hopes of finding some*

Hello everyone, I'm a new player, I've got about 17 hours played by now and I have everything I need except for Iron and Borax, which eludes me fully. I have found iron through prospecting but can't locate it. I tried searching previous topics but I still can't seem to find Hematite, I might not be searching far enough, or maybe I just simply don't understand how prospecting actually works. Firstly, am I correct in thinking that Hematite only generates in certain stones? If so which ones, and would mining in a place where there are more correct stone types with lower percentage be better than high percentage with only 1 correct stone down below? Underneath I've put my Everything prospects and only Hematite prospects It's only yellow in 1 place and leads to nowhere green, with red all around in thousands of blocks of range. Do I need to go even further or should I be able to find it somewhere in my Decent area? I also play on all default settings except land cover which I believe is 95% now instead of 100%, no world height or other things have been changed. Any responses will be appreciated
