Daniil's ores
by daniil1415
Daniil's ores adds fourteen ores with their own tiers, plus ingots, tools, armor and decorative blocks for each of them, and is built for NeoForge 1.21.8.
What it does
Each ore generates in the world with its own strength and rarity, and breaking it yields an ingot that is smelted and crafted like any other metal. Players smelt the ingot in a furnace and then craft tools and armor from it. The ores range from about one time to roughly 6.7 times the strength of iron, so the tier reached depends on which ore is worked with.
Four neon colors (red, blue, green and purple) are the most visible part of the content, with a full set of ingots, tools and armor for each one. The mod also adds ore, ingot and building blocks for decoration. Recipes for smelting and crafting are included for every item, so the mod works without a separate guide.
The mod is a NeoForge mod for 1.21.8 only. It runs on the client and the server, so the server and every player need it. Daniil's ores is released under the MIT License but is not open source, and the author has said that more ores and a new mechanics update are planned.
