Easy Ore Generation
by jmane2026
Easy Ore Generation is a NeoForge mod that registers four ore blocks and one item, and adds generators that produce ore, water and lava on demand.
What it does
Once a sample of an ore has been collected, the generators can keep producing more of it without limit. The Random Ore Generator places random ore above itself, while the Precise Ore Generator places a chosen ore above itself and pushes it into a connected inventory in front. Separate Water Generator and Lava Generator blocks output their fluid upward. An Upgrade Card raises the output rate of the machine it is applied to.
The mod is described by its author as a simple mod that generates ores, and it registers its ores with NeoForge, so it needs no other loader. Installation covers the server and each player's game. Game versions 26.1 – 26.2 are covered by files, with 1.0.3 for 26.2 as the latest NeoForge file. The code is not open source; it is under All rights reserved, though public links to the source code and issue tracker exist.
Key features
Random ore generation

Fluid generators
Water and Lava Generators output their fluid upward, which allows sources to be built without buckets.

Use cases
Automated ore supply
A player who has collected one sample ore can build generators that keep supplying that ore to a storage system.
Who it’s for: Players who want ore and fluid production in survival or on a multiplayer server, without setting up separate farms for each resource.
How it compares
Random Ore is a Forge and NeoForge mod for 1.12.2 – 1.21.1, with the same client and server environment and All rights reserved licensing, so it does not cover 26.1 – 26.2. Ore Deposits is a Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt mod for 1.16.5 – 1.21.1 that is required on the server, with client installation optional, and is under the Apache License 2.0. No More Copper Ore is also multi-loader, covers 1.19 – 1.21.1, works server-side with optional client installation, and is under the MIT License.
