Mineral Deposits, or Mineral Veins, are veins of ores that are very thin but very spread out. They cannot be detected without a Core Sample Drill and cannot be extracted without an Excavator. Each Mineral Deposits takes up only one chunk; this can be in any chunk though, including other dimensions and in void worlds.
Most veins are not made of a single material, but made of a mix of materials. Below is a table that shows each vein and what is extracted from it.[1]
