Extra Ore Mod
by quark19
Extra Ore Mod adds new ores, raw materials, metal detectors and ruby blocks to the Minecraft world, with its items and recipes built on top of the vanilla resource system.
What it does
Extra Ore Mod is an early development project from quark19 that adds ores and utility items to Minecraft. Its content includes Raw Ruby, Rubber Scrap, Reel Rubber, Copper Wire and Reel Copper Wire, along with a Metal Detector for locating deposits and Block Ruby and Block Raw Ruby for storage. Some resources are made by processing existing materials such as rubber scraps and wires, so players turn one item into another through recipes.
The mod requires Fabric API and runs only on the Fabric loader, with files for 1.20.4 released as a beta. The server and every player need the mod installed. The code is open source under the MIT License, and public links to the source and issue tracker are available.
The author describes the list of items as ever growing, so more ores, tools and utilities are expected to arrive in later builds. Each update broadens the set of resources that can be discovered in ravines and mountains, and each new ore brings its own recipes.
Key features
Raw Ruby and ruby blocks
Raw Ruby can be stored in Block Raw Ruby, and refined ruby can be stored in Block Ruby for compact storage.
Rubber and copper resources
Rubber Scrap and Reel Rubber come from processing, and Copper Wire and Reel Copper Wire come from copper materials.
Metal Detector
The Metal Detector is a tool added by the mod for finding deposits of its ores in the world.
Recipe-based progression
