I've been trying to figure out some of the specifics of nether ores, but I still need some help. Does anyone know...

1. What level are nether ores usually in? I've been mining on 10-13 for a while but I haven't found a single ore. I can still find cheaper ores on the surface, though. (Coal, Copper, etc.)

2. Can you die by nether ore explosion on peaceful? I know I shouldn't play on peaceful, but I'm not too good at surviving. That would suck if I lost all my ores.

If you can answer my questions, I thank you very much. :)
