Ores Remaster
Ores Remaster adds three new ores, Obsidian, Silver and Flintstone, that fill gaps between the vanilla materials for NeoForge 1.21.1.
What it does
The three ores are placed in the world at different depths and biomes, so mining covers more ground and rewards exploration. Their gear sits between existing vanilla tiers, giving a smoother progression curve than the jumps from iron to diamond to netherite. The stats are tuned against vanilla values, so the new equipment stays close to the existing ones and no item is meant to be overpowered.
Ores Remaster is a world generation mod with Adventure and Equipment tags. Files exist only for NeoForge and only for 1.21.1, and the latest file is 1.2.5, published 2025-08-10. The server and every player need the mod installed. Just Enough Items (JEI) is optional and adds recipe lookup for the new items. The mod is not open source and is released under All rights reserved.
