Getting Started with New Ores

Mining and Crafting Basics

Crystalcraft Unlimited adds over 200 new ores across the Overworld, Nether, and The End. Start by mining these ores—some are exclusive to specific biomes, so explore all three dimensions to find them all.

To craft tools from your ores, you'll need special sticks: obsidian sticks for gem tools, iron sticks for metal tools, and blaze rods for Nether ore tools. Use a smithing table to fuse different materials into powerful alloys and unique gems. Craft armor using standard vanilla armor recipes with your new materials.

For advanced crafting, use a brewing stand to create special items like Withered Steel and Shadow Diamonds. Combine materials strategically to unlock the mod's full potential.
