Prospecting

Class proficiency — see Proficiencies for the rules and the Proficiency Index for the full list.

The character is an expert at finding ore deposits who can assess 6-mile hexes to determine if they have any minable ore. Prospecting one 6-mile hex requires one day of dedicated activity and requires a successful proficiency throw of 18+. A character who also has the Land Surveying proficiency gains an additional +4 bonus to prospecting throws. Detailed rules for prospecting for ore are described in By This Axe.
