Ore Bamboo Mod

by Thomas_Lee

Ore Bamboo Mod turns bamboo into a source of ores, with several bamboo types that each yield a different mineral.

FabricClient and serverMIT LicenseOpen source1.20.1 – 1.21.1

What it does

Each bamboo type drops its matching ore when harvested: Coal, Copper, Iron, Gold, Diamond, Emerald, Netherite and Lapis Lazuli. The bamboo grows like regular bamboo, so it can be planted and spread across a plot, and harvesting it returns the ore items.

Replanted ore bamboo keeps producing, which allows a large ore farm to be built from a small starting stock. The mod runs on client and server, so both sides need it. Builds are published for Fabric only, for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, and are released under the MIT License, so the code is open source.

Key features

  1. Eight ore bamboo types

    Coal, copper, iron, gold, diamond, emerald, netherite and lapis lazuli each have their own bamboo variant.

  2. Ore drops from harvesting

    Breaking a mature ore bamboo stalk yields the ore that matches its type.

  3. Replantable bamboo

    Harvested ore bamboo can be replanted, so a single stock can supply a steady harvest.

  4. Plantable like regular bamboo

    The ore bamboo grows and spreads like vanilla bamboo, so existing bamboo farm layouts work with it.

Use cases

Ore farms

Replanted stalks let a player build a farm that produces ores over time instead of mining them.

Who it’s for: Players who want a renewable source of ores through farming, and server owners who want an ore farm option that works for every player on a server.

What the author says

This is a type of bamboo that can be turned into ores. You can plant it just like regular bamboo, and you'll have an endless supply of ores.
