To find iron activate your pickaxe, right click on a tile that says "rock" and choose "prospect" from the "mining" sub-menu. Iron is the most commonly occurring ore in Wurm, but it can be a challenge to find. You may have to search through a lot of rock tiles before you manage to find an iron mine - but [[prospecting]] can help narrow down your search.
'''If you are unlucky with finding an [[Iron Vein|iron vein]] ''' you can also [[Foraging|rummage]] many rock tiles and collect the [[iron rock]]s which weight 3kg and give 0.2kg of iron when melted. This is not much but may be enough to make the nails needed for building the house. This method is very useful for those without a public mine to use, or those who do not want to start a mine. You can easily get enough iron for your entire house, but it will be low quality nails.
This way can also be alot faster if you only need few amounts of iron and have many rock tiles around but no premade mine or luck with [[prospecting]] any iron.
