Hello all im having trouble getting stock of nitrate powder, is it only lootable now? or are their surface boulders i just havnt found. Only biome ive not explored much is snow so unless the surface boulders are in snow and just havnt found them then its only loot??

 
It is just like the rest of the ore. On the surface and on both maps I'm on they are in the forest but not sure where the main source of biome it is actually in.

 
There are surface boulders for nitrate. Looks like a big white spikey ball. I have seen them in every biome so far. I have no idea if they are more prevalent in one or the other. I found a large stock of Nitrate when I was digging in an Iron mine. I haven't had to specifically search for it.

 
Nitrate is mainly found in snow. However, the surface markers are hard to see in the snow from a distance. But I have seen nitrate in all biomes so far.

Here you can take a look at the surface markers:

 
I can confirm nitrate spawns as boulders, white spiky balls as mentioned above...

...but I also feel like nitrate boulder/veins are a lot more rare than the other boulders....like...7 different worlds and iron/coal/lead appear at least 3 times as frequently on every one of those worlds.

Definitely rarer.

 
Definitely rarer. We have lead everywhere, practically tripping over it. Same with iron. Nitrate I rarely see in the snow biom (maybe 2 sightings) but we have about 9 marked off in the forest biom. Maybe they are just really really hard to spot in snow. The coal deposits in the burning lands are almost rare but we get quite a few of them bunched up around the coal plants, which is kinda cool and makes it easier to find.

Wasteland needs its own mineral to mine honestly, besides land mines.

 
Big nitrate deposits under all the spiky surface ores, which are in every biome. Every time we've broken a boulder we've found a major ore vein just under it.
