Ammonium nitrate is a quest item. It is used in The Dig Site quest along with nitroglycerin, ground charcoal, and arcenia root to make a chemical compound.
It is obtained by using the chest key to open the chest near the panning point, and is brought to Terry Balando, who identifies it as ammonium nitrate. Before he identifies it, it is known as chemical powder.
