TheElementGuy's More Metals and Ores

Have you ever searched for a mod that simply adds new materials—only to find ones packed with extra mechanics, flashy animated textures, or over-the-top tools like instant tree choppers and pickaxovels?

Yeah…this mod ain't that.

If you're looking for high-tech gadgets and magical machines, this probably isn't the mod for you. But if you want a clean, vanilla-style expansion that fits naturally into Minecraft’s core gameplay, you’re in the right place. Keep reading.

This mod adds:

• Cubic Zirconia
• Bronze* - crafted from copper and tin
• Bloodstone
• Tenumbrum
• Rubidium
• Starshard
• Aquamarine

To mine:
Cubic Zirconia - stone
Bloodstone - stone
Tenumbrum - iron
Rubidium - diamond
Starshard - netherite
Aquamarine - stone

*Bronze is only in 1.X and 3.X versions.

Versions in the format of 21.X.X.X require TEG Mat Lib.

Addons:

Celestial Bronze – A mythical metal with divine origins, Celestial Bronze is a rare and powerful alloy known for its shimmering hue and formidable strength. Ideal for crafting advanced tools, weapons, and armor, it integrates seamlessly into the world without feeling overpowered. Whether you're battling hostile mobs or exploring ancient ruins, Celestial Bronze offers both function and flair, staying true to Minecraft’s vanilla spirit while adding a touch of mythological magic.

Visible Ores – Inspired by the Vanilla Tweaks aesthetic, Visible Ores enhances the clarity and visibility of ore blocks by subtly outlining them or adjusting their background textures. It doesn't change how ores function or look radically—just enough to make mining more intuitive and less frustrating, especially in low-light environments. This tweak preserves Minecraft’s core visual style while improving gameplay quality for resource gatherers.
