Ground-penetrating scanner
A downward-facing penetrating radar, combined with sonar and magnetic imagers, allows you to detect (but not identify) minerals buried deep under the surface. Requires a huge amount of electricity.

A ground-penetrating scanner detects and illuminates underground deposits of resources, either jade or metals. Extracting materials from these deposits requires a deep drill.
The scanner must be researched before it becomes available, and needs power to function. A scanner is one of the most power-hungry devices. During operation, a researcher will work at it, periodically finding new mineral deposits. This process can repeat indefinitely meaning that maps will not run out of resources.
Version history
In Beta 19 its power usage was significantly reduced from 1500W to 800W. Its build cost was also changed, previously costing 400 steel and 12 components.
In 1.1 it was reworked; previously it shows all minerals on the map instantly. Its power cost was also slightly lowered to 700W.
