The ultimate material unification and dynamic resource library for Minecraft.
Ores Core is a high-performance library and asset generation engine designed to solve two of the biggest hurdles in modern Minecraft (26.1+) modding: material fragmentation and repetitive resource creation. It serves as an open, community-driven foundation for both players and developers.
Stop wasting days of development time creating identical basic resources over and over again! With Ores Core, you simply declare the materials your mod needs through a JSON file, and the core instantly generates the items, blocks, recipes, dynamically constructed textures, and seamlessly integrates them into the world generation for you.
Currently, Ores Core manages over 90+ base materials, pushing 5000+ potential item/block combinations, and guarantees an absolute infinity of custom ore variations by injecting those materials natively into any stone block from any mod!
Missing a specific material or variation for your mod?
Ores Core is built to be a universal tool crafted for the community. If you don't find the resource you need, just submit a content proposal. It takes merely a single line of code on our end to add full generation capabilities for a new material, instantly making it available and globally unified for everyone else!
We have recently migrated all our detailed documentation to a comprehensive Wiki! Whether you are a mod developer looking to offload asset generation, or a modpack creator trying to unify a massive mod list, check out the resources below:

If you are building a modpack, you need Ores Mods.
Ores Mods is the ultimate companion to Ores Core, specifically designed to solve the common issue of cluttered and duplicated resources in significantly heavily modded environments.
- Total Material Unification: Say goodbye to having 5 different types of Copper or Lead in your inventory. Ores Mods automatically unifies identical resources (ores, ingots, nuggets, raw materials, plates, gears, etc.) from different mods into a single type, hiding duplicates from JEI/EMI, and keeping crafting seamless.
- Infinite Ore Generation: Generate an infinite variety of ores combining any material type with any stone or block type from any installed mod. You are no longer limited by what mods provide out of the box.
Ores Mods gives unprecedented power to Modpack Curators. See our Modpack Creators Wiki to learn more.
