Intelligence: Quarry (Vanillaquarry)
Intelligence: Quarry, a Forge and NeoForge storage mod, recreates the vanilla-styled quarry with filters, loop mode, pull ejection and a configurable area card.
What it does
The quarry mines a selected area layer by layer. Its filter slots accept up to 27 block types, so the machine can skip what a player does not want collected. Loop mode lets the quarry run over cobblestone generators repeatedly, and pull eject mode moves mined items out in a more compact build. Broken blocks can be replaced with a chosen block, which helps when floors, walls or ceilings need to be set quickly. Air blocks can be skipped to shorten an excavation, and whole chunks of blocks can be selected with a few clicks. The area itself is set through a card GUI that edits the selected coordinates.
The mod runs on the Client and server environment, so the server and every player need it. It is open source under the MIT License and has public links to source code, an issue tracker and a wiki. Files target 1.19.2, 1.19.3, 1.20.1, 1.21.1 and 26.1.2, and the latest files are a Forge build for 1.20.1 and a NeoForge build for 26.1.2. The mod was first published on 2023-10-04 and last updated on 2026-08-19.
