Detect Metal and Minerals

This spell allows its caster to divine the location of a single type of ore or mineral deposit, A casting priest concentrates on finding a specific type of metal or mineral (including gems), and can detect a different type each round, if desired. If the substance is within a path 10 feet wide and 120 feet long, the exact location and approximate quantity of material is revealed. The caster can determine if the material is in a pure, refined form (pure silver, for example), raw ore (iron ore), or alloy form (adamantine). The caster can move at a walk and maintain the spell, but cannot engage in strenuous activity and maintain it.
