+#REDIRECT [[Saltpeter]]
-{{stonelookup/0}}{{av}}
-'''Saltpeter''' is a non-economic and low-value yellow [[stone]] found within [[sedimentary layer]]s. With a melting point of {{ct|10601}} and a boiling point of only {{ct|10720}}, it is one of the few stones which will ''boil'' in [[magma]]. Saltpeter is also the second least dense non-economic stone, second to [[jet]], making it great for objects that must be hauled frequently, if it were not for its rarity.
-In real life, its best known use is as a primary ingredient of gunpowder, along with [[charcoal]] and [[brimstone|sulfur]]. This process does not exist in ''Dwarf Fortress'' (yet; it seems Toady has plans to include gunpowder later, but only for simple uses), and therefore gunpowder is also non-existent. Saltpeter, as a source of both potassium (like [[potash]]) and nitrogen, is also a fertilizer, though it is not possible to use it as such in ''Dwarf Fortress''.

-{{D for Dwarf}}
-It is rumored that if a dwarf ever discovers saltpeter's capabilities, dwarven "civilization" would come to an explosive, but [[Fun]] end.
-Despite persistent myths to the contrary, adding saltpeter to your male dwarves' military rations will ''not'' help to control your fortress's population ''or'' reduce incidences of romantic infidelity.
