Straight From The Ore
by AlphaIceCube
Straight From The Ore adds craftable powered ores, three ore fragments and matching blocks, plus a sword, for Forge on 1.12.2.
What it does
Players make powered ores with an Ore Powerer, which turns ore into fragments that can be crafted into blocks and tools. The set includes Ikeorite, Mystorite and Sandanite, each with its own fragment and block, and an Ikeorite Sword is among the tools. The content sits in the Magic category with a few items in Equipment and World generation.
The mod runs on the server side only, so players join a server running it without installing anything. It is published for Forge and for 1.12.2 alone, with the latest file B1.0.2-1.12.2 dated 2024-08-28 on the beta channel. The first file appeared on 2024-08-26.
The license is All rights reserved, so the code is not open source. The author notes that updates are expected frequently, but no release schedule is given in the listing.

Use cases
Early-game ore processing
A player who has the Ore Powerer can convert ore into fragments without a separate smelting chain.
Server-side progression
Because only the server runs the mod, a group can add the ores and tools without asking players to install anything.
Who it’s for: The mod suits Forge players on 1.12.2 who want powered ore fragments, matching blocks and a sword in a survival world, and server owners who want to add this content without requiring client installs.
