Mineral map filter

Finding aglae on the map or metal sometimes is a chore. We already have various map overlays, why not add filter to it, like, check iron and overlay will highlight iron veins just like it highlights oxygen.

I think this would be good but to make it slightly less OP possibly having a device which reveals it would be nice, like a seismic device or some sort of sonar. 

once the device is down it just needs to be powered and you can have it ping certain materials

You can already see all this stuff just by panning the camera around and looking closely. I don't think it makes sense to require a special building just to make already-available information a little more legible.

I think the point of it was so that you didnt have to go looking around.
