About this Mod
Mod Description:
Craftable Ores Mod
The Craftable Ores Mod lets you craft all vanilla ores using their corresponding items and blocks! No more endless mining trips – now you have full control over your resources.
Features:
- Crafting recipes for all vanilla ores (Iron, Gold, Diamond, Emerald, Coal, etc.).
I started this project because I noticed many Minecraft players use ores as decorative blocks in their builds. I wanted to do the same and decorate my world with ores. But, like many of us Minecraft players, I didn’t want to spend endless hours gathering those ores. When I looked for a mod to craft ores and couldn’t really find one, I saw an opportunity to create something new. So, I decided to make this mod to help all of us easily craft and enjoy these beautiful blocks for decoration and creativity.
