  Happends every time when clay chunk is in contact with ground. Only solution is to pick it up super fast before it starts to fall.

  Do you have any more details for this issue? Where is this node?

  I have also experienced this on almost any node of each type. If you are not fast enough the chunks will fall and clip in to the grey stone base that the materials are in and you can not pick them up it just shows you a pick axe icon on the grey stone. Frustrating given the time and amount given sometimes. They've also been known to go flying far but I think I've seen that posted somewhere as well. I experienced this in scoria, clay, and obsidian.

  "clay depleted but still shows symbol" (suggested by Stefan on 2023-08-29), including upvotes (1) and comments (0), was merged into this suggestion.

  I had a similar issue - I accidentally dropped my hammer near the clay node, it fell under the grey stone and I couldn't pick it up. Any items dropped near the clay node clip under the ground.

  Note that this is also the case for the deep mining ore deposits. Items clip through the deposit and you can't access them. It's especially annoying with the inaccessible electric junction nodes.

  With scoria still the same, after 3 months nothing improved.
  You only can get about every second piece.
  It's everywhere.

  And, of course, clay. I like having to pick them up, but losing them is annoying. Maybe just don't allow them to clip through the rock mesh around it (meant to resemble the impact site).
  
  As a temporary workaround, if I spam or time hitting F while focused on the piece that is about to break off, I am almost always able to pick it up before it has a chance to roll below the surface.

  10 months in and still annoying:

  In this case it was only one piece but some times there are three pieces unreachable.
  Please fix this guys!

  In Null Sector breaking scoria with sledgehammer often results in the items falling under the ground.
