Raw Ore Block Blasting Mod (1.21.8, 1.20.1) revolutionizes the vanilla ore processing workflow by letting players smelt raw ore blocks directly into full metal blocks. Instead of manually breaking down raw ore blocks into nine individual ores and then smelting them one-by-one, this mod simplifies the process just throw the raw block into a blast furnace and receive a full metal block as output.
While this method takes significantly longer to process about eight times the smelting time of a single ore it rewards players with nine times the experience points. This makes it not only more efficient in terms of item conversion but also a great way to farm XP without extra effort.
Features:
- Smelt raw ore blocks directly into their corresponding metal blocks using a blast furnace
- Compatible with iron, gold, copper, and other raw ore blocks
- Smelting time is 8x longer than raw ores to balance the convenience
- Produces 9x the XP of smelting a single raw ore
- Designed for players who want bulk processing and better XP efficiency
