Nitrate supports Gunpowder, Antibiotics and Herbal Antibiotics crafting.
Potassium Nitrate nodes and deposits in Pine Forest, Burnt Forest, Desert, and Wasteland; boulders, body bags, and cave formations can also yield powder.
Potassium Nitrate Powder has several collection routes, with surface-marked deposits offering a focused mining trip. It can also be gathered from boulders, body bags, and cave stalactites or stalagmites. The powder feeds Gunpowder and medical crafting, so choose a route based on what you can safely reach.
Repeat at another deposit or harvestable source when your powder stock is low; each boulder, body bag, or exposed cave feature is a finite pickup.
Stop when the powder covers your intended ammunition or medical crafting, or leave a dangerous cave and resume from a safer source.
