Mole Senses doesn't detect Sandstone vein

Recommended Posts

I noticed recently while using mole senses to see if I was on top of a sandstone vein that Mole Senses doesn't detect it at all, yet it was detecting iron veins 5 tiles away.

Effectiveness is based on cast power but after several casts the only thing sensed is the same iron vein.

Probably because a sandstone wall is not a vein of ore.  Does it detect slate and marble walls?

I cannot reproduce this as I'm getting sandstone sniffs on test.  (As well as slate and marble)  

 

Can anyone on live confirm that they have sniffed sandstone?

[06:08:16] You leave the venerable fat Greyoblivion.
[06:08:23] You will now attempt to climb steep areas.
[06:08:25] You start to cast Mole Senses.
[06:08:54] You cast Mole Senses.
[06:08:54] For a short while you go almost blind, but you smell the earth with incredible accuracy.
[06:08:54] You smell the rock less than a meter below you.
[06:08:54] You smell traces of iron and slate in the dirt.
[06:08:54] You sniff slate wall 5 tiles away in your facing direction.
[06:08:57] You will no longer climb.
[06:09:00] You will now attempt to climb steep areas.
[06:09:05] You start to gather fragments of the rock.
[06:09:09] There is slate (very good quality), slate (poor quality), iron (acceptable quality) and slate (acceptable quality) nearby.
 

the slate 5 tiles away wasn't the closest one, closest was 1 tile away

 

[06:02:02] You start to gather fragments of the rock.
[06:02:06] There is iron (poor quality), tin (good quality) and sandstone (very good quality) nearby.
[06:02:10] You start to cast Mole Senses.
[06:02:39] You cast Mole Senses.
[06:02:39] For a short while you go almost blind, but you smell the earth with incredible accuracy.
[06:02:39] You smell the rock less than a meter below you.
[06:02:58] You are too far away to do that.

 

both were over 40 power casts

 

just general weirdness with mole senses not related to sandstone
