:Yes.

Embark screen appearance[edit]
Sedimentary layers show up as bright white on the embark screen, right? Primax 05:47, 22 June 2010 (UTC)
- Yes. Ice (if a layer, say on a glacier) is cyan, soil layers are brown, sedimentary stone layers are bright white, igneous extrusive layers and metamorphic layers are light gray, and igneous intrusive layers are dark gray. --DeMatt 06:29, 22 June 2010 (UTC)

How to ID after embark[edit]
I've only just understood that certain ores appear at certain levels. Can I id a layer once I've embarked? How would you go about this - this could be helpful in the wiki for newbies too :)) --Djsmiley2k 09:28, 27 January 2011 (UTC)
- The best way is to drill: designate an up/down stairway twenty or so levels down. Look at the type of stone you've drilled through to figure out what type of layer, and help ID where the ores you want are. That shaft can also serve as the access to the mines, if you hit a promising area. Drilling through and around caverns is a more advanced technique, along with magma sea and adamantine use.
