What it does

Each ore has a prospecting stick and a prospecting ring, and a ring is crafted from the stick of the same ore, so a diamond ring pairs with a diamond stick. The rings are worn in the accessory slots provided by Curios API and are meant to help exploration and searching underground. Twelve rings are included across the ore series.

Players who want more from exploration can use the set on long adventures and in survival worlds. Rings of Prospecting requires Curios API and Library Ferret, and it is published for Forge on 1.12.2, 1.16.5, 1.17.1, 1.18.1 and 1.19 with the latest file for 1.19. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. The code is not open source and is released as All rights reserved.

  3. Crafting from sticks

    Each ring is crafted from its corresponding prospecting stick, keeping the ore series consistent.

    The set includes twelve rings across the ore series, covering the same ores as the sticks.
