About this Mod
[Unofficial] Port of DoubleNegation's Compact Ores Mod for Newer Versions of Minecraft
📖 Description
Compact Ores Port adds compact ores to the world — rare variants of regular ores that drop 3–5× more resources when mined. They generate naturally alongside their base ores and are visually distinct thanks to auto-generated textures.
The mod faithfully recreates the original's functionality and is compatible with any modded ores through configuration files. Both Forge and Fabric versions are available.
