Overworld Obtainable Ores
by Ndisclose
Overworld Obtainable Ores moves several Nether-only ores into the Overworld, so players can reach them without travelling to the Nether.
What it does
The mod generates blackstone blobs underground below deepslate, placed much like granite. Quartz forms ore veins in the way redstone does. Basalt fills underground lava pools with blobs of its own, and glowstone grows in clusters that dangle beneath lush cave biomes. Ancient debris appears in small veins deep underground. The stated aim is to bring Nether exclusive ores into the Overworld.
The mod is a Fabric mod that requires Fabric API and runs on the client and the server, so both sides need it. It is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later. Files exist for 26.1.2 and 26.2, and the latest Fabric build, 0.01.1.26.2, targets 26.2 and was published on 2026-06-21.
