*Yeah, I concur. I've seen platnum, hemitite, and opals on the surface. This might actually be more realistic then the idea that you have to dig deeper for the good stuff. But is it more fun?

Hey, so... Not entirely sure what it means when it says 'need non-economic stone' when I try to build doors/whatever in the Masons Workshop... If I don't have sandstone/whatever, am I screwed? Gei... I like the old cliff that I'm used to :(
If you hit z for the general overview, and go to the "Stone" tab you can modify whether or not a type of stone is kept for a particular task. This brings us to one of the typos i've found, you hit enter to change the designation (save or don't save) not space.--Gimbal machine 10:13, 30 October 2007 (EDT)
Ore near the top.
I Don't think that the phrase "better stones and ore can be found lower down." is correct at all, in my current fortress the level beneath the loam had a platinum vein (I think, technically, common platinum), and the level beneath that had Magnetite, which seems to be chock full of irony goodness.
