Frequently asked questions

Do I need to enable this data pack or does it work automatically?
You need to enable the data pack in your world settings before it takes effect. Once enabled, all ore mining will immediately start dropping refined ore instead of raw ore.
Will this work with my existing world or do I need a new one?
The data pack works with both new and existing worlds—just enable it in the data pack menu and the changes apply right away.
What ores are affected by this data pack?
All standard ores that normally drop raw ore variants are affected, including copper, iron, gold, and others. The exceptions are Nether Gold Ore and Gilded Blackstone, which continue to drop their raw variants for consistency with vanilla behavior.
Why do Nether Gold Ore and Gilded Blackstone still drop raw ore?
These blocks are excluded to maintain consistency with standard Minecraft behavior, where they naturally drop raw ore variants rather than refined materials.
