[[CDB | Main]] / [[:Category:Skills|Skills]] / [[Prospecting]] / '''{{PAGENAME}}''' == Description ==Analyse is an action granted by the [[prospecting]] skill. When used on recently mined [[rock stone shards|stone shard]], or even [[ore]]s, it allows you to determine if any ore veins are nearby the tile the shard was mined from, as well as their approximate distance and direction from that tile. The action is first unlocked at prospecting skill level 20, and requires a [[Account types|premium account]] to perform. To Analyse, right-click a rock shardsstone shard or ore, and select "Analyse."

*"{{event|inline|You are unable to work out how to analyse the shard." }} - You are below prospecting skill level 20.*"{{event|inline|It looks like someone has tampered with the rock stone shards and therefore you decide not to analyse it." }} - The shard has already been analysed and cannot be analysed again.. Also appears if part of the shards have been used to make something or used in improving. *"{{event|inline|The rock stone shards looks too old for a decent analysis and therefore you decide not to analyse it." }} - Appears if you try to analyse a shard from a [[bulk storage bin]].

The four six different strengths:

*'''"Minuscule traces"''' - Shows for ore that is 4 tiles away. Unlocked at prospecting level 5451.*'''"Vague traces"''' - Shows for ore that is 5 tiles away. Unlocked at prospecting level 7068. (I saw this at 69.8+)*'''"Indistinct traces"''' - Shows for ore that is 6 tiles away. Unlocked at prospecting level 85(?). (Needs confirmation)

The distance away from the analysed rock stone shard/tile is referring to a square of radius equivalent to around the distancetile analysed, as shown in this picture: [[File:Analyze.png]] (white = 1 tile, blue = 2 tiles, cyan = 3 tiles, green = 4 tiles, orange = 5 tiles, pink = 6 tiles)

*"Slight traces" quality, unlocked at level 60 (Needs confirmation) (Required level is <41 and >26)40 *"Faint traces" quality, unlocked at level 70 (Needs confirmation)50*"Minuscule traces" quality, unlocked at level 80 (Needs confirmation)60

If you have got a compass in your inventory you will also get in In addition to type, quality and distance of the ore[[vein]], a direction is available from the analyze messagesif you have a [[compass]] in your [[inventory]]. The direction is given as one of 16 possible values:

* all other locations fall into the 8 directions ''east/west of north'', ''north/south of east'', ''east/west of south'' and ''north/south of west''

Lots of different sized rock stone shards.

This says that there's a [[silver ore]] vein right to the northeast from the tile from which the analysed rockshard stone shard was mined. The distance one is the square of tiles immediately surrounding the analysed one. Each increment of distance beyond this is the square of tiles immediately surrounding the previous one. In this example the second square, of distance two, holds the [[iron ore]].

Below is a table showing the required prospecting Prospecting skill needed to view ore type and quality by distance. This is the same information as provided aboveof ore : (fields with "?" are unconfirmed, just inserted into "unknown" means you will see something like ''You notice a table for quick referenceslight trace of something, but cannot quite make it out''. Numbers with question marks(?) are uncomfirmed.
