Every ingot tells a story.
Every upgrade marks a journey.
The final armor is not the goal. The road to forge it is.

New Minerals: Go Beyond Netherite is an end-game progression mod created for players who want to rediscover their Minecraft world through exploration, rarity and meaningful upgrades.

Instead of giving you instant power, the mod introduces six increasingly difficult mineral tiers beyond Netherite. Every new material requires exploration, preparation and the equipment forged during the previous stage.

Completing the ultimate armor set is intentionally difficult. This is not a race toward the strongest equipment: it is a long journey where every discovered ore and every crafted ingot represents real progress.

Six ores. One continuous journey.

Your adventure begins after Netherite and continues across the Nether, the Overworld and the End:

• Zulite - Found at high altitudes in the Nether. Your first step beyond Netherite.
• Lavine - Hidden deeper inside the Nether and significantly harder to obtain.
• Radion - A dangerous Nether mineral that must be processed before it can be used.
• Purlpat - Found around snowy mountain peaks, sometimes concealed beneath the snow.
• Disolite - Hidden within End Stone and requiring its own special preparation process.
• Arthenium - The ultimate mineral: exceptionally rare, difficult to locate and often completely hidden.

Each tier upgrades the equipment obtained before it, creating a clear progression where no discovery becomes immediately useless.

Made for long survival worlds

New Minerals: Go Beyond Netherite is especially suited for:

• Long-term survival adventures
• Hardcore worlds
• Players who want a new reason to explore old terrain
• Small private servers
• Large multiplayer communities
• Groups of friends who enjoy searching and progressing together

On a server, rare resources become shared expeditions. Players can explore different regions, exchange discoveries and work together toward equipment that would take a very long time to complete alone.

Strength without superpowers

The mod does not give the player magical abilities, special powers or automatic advantages.

Its progression remains equipment-based and faithful to Minecraft. Your strength comes from the ores you find, the materials you process and the tools or armor you eventually forge.

The equipment may surpass Netherite, but obtaining it requires considerably more time, risk and investment.

What the mod adds

• 6 new minerals
• 6 successive progression tiers
• 30 new tools and weapons
• 24 new armor pieces
• Unique crafting and smithing processes
• Balanced world generation
• Full armor-trim support
• Vanilla-friendly progression
• A built-in smithing recipe guide
• Creative tools for verifying ore generation

Armor trims

All six new armor sets support armor trims using both vanilla materials and the minerals introduced by the mod.

The complete Armor Trim Catalogue, available with the project files, provides a visual preview of 1,944 rendered combinations across the new armor sets, Netherite armor, vanilla trim materials and modded trim materials.

The catalogue is intended as a visual reference. The final appearance in Minecraft may also benefit from in-game lighting, perspective and enchantment glints.

Creative ore-generation verification

A Creative-only X-Ray visualization system is included to help creators, server administrators and testers confirm that the six ores have generated correctly.

It displays visible colored block outlines without covering the entire screen. This feature is intended as a development and world-generation verification tool - not as part of normal Survival progression.

Smithing and recipe guide

The progression uses several unique recipes and processing steps. An integrated guide helps players understand the necessary smithing upgrades without requiring them to leave the game constantly.
