Are you tired of the vanilla ores? Do you want some new spice to your world? Well this mod has just the thing for you! This mod adds a lot of custom ores, with unique methods on how to obtain them
READ BELOW
This mod's development has been delayed indefinitely.
Scroll down if you want a more "technical" view of exactly how strong each ore set is. (work in progress)
Upcoming ores: Cobalt, Amethyst, Titanium, Echo, Leaf, VoidSteel, Zephyr, Chromium.
Current Ores, listed from strongest to weakest:
- Rubium: Fully implemented except armor.
- Cobalt: All textures implemented - Making Items
Generation:
- Rubium: Y=16 to Y=32 | Replaces stone | Usually found in veins of one
- Cobalt: Y=-48 to Y=128 | Replaces andesite | Usually found in veins of thirteen

- Rubium = Netherite
Tool drop tier needed to mine ore:

It takes around 15-30 minutes to fully implement an ore (except armor). Expect 1-8 ores per day for at least the first week of release. I have decided to add 10-20 ores every update, so expect an update every month or so, except for bugfixes and texture changes.
