More Abundant Ores
⚠️ Important: This mod now has two optional builds:
-
Regular / High Generation Build – ores generate more frequently and in larger veins.
-
Balanced / Lower Generation Build – ores spawn less often (still higher than vanilla ores) for a more balanced experience.
Players can choose which version they prefer; the original high-generation build will remain available as the default.
This mod expands vanilla ore generation by adding custom variants of existing ores that:
-
Generate more frequently and in larger veins than normal (depending on the build).
-
Drop more resources when mined (e.g., Coal Ore drops 3 Coal, Iron Ore drops 3 Raw Iron, Copper Ore drops 8 Raw Copper, Gold Ore drops 3 Raw Gold).
-
Do not replace vanilla ores — the original Minecraft ores still generate as usual.
🔨 Current Features:
-
Overworld Coal Ore variant
-
Overworld Iron Ore variant
-
Overworld Copper Ore variant
-
Overworld Gold Ore variant
📌 Planned Updates:
-
Additional overworld ores (Redstone, Lapis, Diamond, Emerald)
-
Deepslate variants for all ores
-
Balance tweaks based on feedback
💡 Note:
This mod is designed to keep the game rewarding while maintaining balance. Players who prefer higher ore abundance can stick with the original build; those who want a slightly more challenging experience can try the balanced/lowered-generation build.
⚠️ Feedback & Issues:
If you encounter bugs, worldgen problems, or balance issues, please let me know! I plan to actively update this project and expand it with more ores in future releases.
