Unearthed
by cainthetrain
Unearthed adds new ores, metals and materials to find deep in caves, along with tools, armor and blocks made from them.
What it does
Players dig deeper into caves to find new ores, then smelt them into custom metals. The metals and other collected materials are used to craft tools and armor that hold up under repeated use, plus new blocks for building. Unearthed runs on NeoForge, and both the server and every player need it. Files are published for NeoForge, for 1.21.4 and 1.21.8, with 1.1.0 for 1.21.8 as the latest file, under CC0 1.0 Universal, which is not open source.
Key features
New ores and metals
Ores placed in deep cave areas yield metals that do not exist in vanilla Minecraft.
Durable tools and armor
Gear crafted from the new metals is meant to last through extended use.
New building blocks
Blocks made from the added materials give builders more options for large projects.
