Iron ore patches on concrete are barely visible on a minimap

Iron ore patches on concrete are barely visible on a minimap, so I'm resorting to using minimap tags in order to not forget about their existence.

This is the highest zoom setting, and it only gets worse when you zoom out :/

Possibly a silly question... why are you covering your ore patches with concrete?

To answer this: I just cover everything that's inside of my factory walls with concrete, in order to move faster around it (and I don't really care about pollution). Ore patches just happen to be in the way

(and I put the drills later on them, too)

Thanks for the report.

I don't consider this a problem: don't concrete over ore if you don't want the ground to look like concrete

In my opinion this has been fixed in the meantime:
