My mod, Ores Extended is currently on hiatus. It is likely that I will take up the duties of updating it again one day but as of right now, it won't be happening for many reasons. I can't say when it will return but I don't think it's going to be anytime too soon. I'm pretty sure it will happen though.

Mod Description:
After 9 months of absence from all forms of modding, I have finally returned and released a brand new update for Ores Extended. This mod now adds a total of 8 new ores and 6 new toolsets (a massive step-up from the previous version). For more info on all the new ores and toolsets, you can find it down below. Please feel free to leave me feedback on this mod down below and report any bugs or errors you find in the mod.

A total of 5 new ores have been added to the mod (Silver, Graphite, Ruby, Sapphire, Rune)
A total of 4 new toolsets have bene added to the mod (Silver, Steel, Obsidian, Rune)
The Tin Toolset has been removed from the mod.
Change Log (V1.13 Patch):

(TWEAK): Graphite is now much rarer
(TWEAK): Each Graphite ore now drops 4 graphite chunks
(TWEAK): Silver Ores spawn rate has dropped for balancing issues

The sword's block function still works the way it should and applies the proper blocking functions, the animation just doesn't play.

If you could, please copy and paste the contents of the ModLoader.txt file.
You can find this file by going to the start menu>in the search bar type run>type %appdata%>go to .minecraft folder.
If you have any other mods installed currently, they may be attempting to use the same item or block ID's.
This mod is cool.
But i found this: The bronze pickaxe has no durability.
The tools can't be enchanted
And...you can put ore's armors and blocks?
Sorry if i writed bad,i don't know too much about english.
Thank you for letting me know. Looking into this right now. It appears none of the pickaxes have working durability. I'm going to try and have a fix for that by mid-day tomorrow at latest.
UPDATE: Confirmed all Shovels, Pickaxes and Axes don't have durability. Swords and Hoes are working as intended.
Tool Enchantment will be fixed in the coming patch. I accidently left out enchanting coding without thinking.

(BUG): Tools are now properly enchantable. (BUG): Swords can now properly block when right clicked. (TWEAK): Graphite Blocks now automatically drop a graphite chunk. Graphite Chunks are no longer made via smelting.
This patch will come out on November 26th.
Thank you for a total of 200 downloads since this mod relaunched 4 days ago.
Ores Extended V1.11 has been put on a bit of a delay because of the load of homework I've been getting over the past few days. I should be able to complete finishing touches on it and have it up this weekend.
There is any chance to have all ores from the game drops more tham one? (except from Lapiz Azulis and Redstone Dust).
I do not plan on doing this as I think it makes it way too easy to get ores (it's already pretty easy to get good tools, Silver actually isn't as rare as I wanted it to be right now).
I do plan on doing this to Graphite in the future however, to make it spam less because as of right now it's all over the cave walls.
This is quite interesting! although some people already have mods with copper and tin. Can they be used for amour?
Armor can not be made in the mod just yet. It will come soon.

Thanks for the feedback so far guys.
EDIT: Wow, 500 downloads since I started this mod and almost 300 downloads since I re-launched this mod. I never expected this when I first started this mod. Thanks guys.
Finally!,A good mod that adds items and blocks to the game that doesent need Forge API! I have been looking for good mods for weeks!
Though I have some questions,those this mod reduce the amount of other ores in the world? I'm currently on kind of a diamond hunt and
I don't wanna lose my chance to get diamonds or other vanilla ores.But other than that awesome mod!

This mod should not change diamonds spawn rate. You will probably FEEL like it's rarer due to the fact that you'll be collecting/finding way more ores with this mod installed, however they shouldn't spawn less than they already do.
This goes for all vanilla ores. It will probably feel like Iron is rarer because copper and tin are more common so you'll be finding more of that, but in general Iron will still generate the same amount that it usually does.
EDIT: The images to the ores have just broken. I will fix these links in a minute. EDIT2: Images are fixed.

You can now download a patched version of the mod for this issue here.
A new patch (V1.11) will be coming in the next few days. It will be fixing more bug issues that are currently occuring.
As usual, if you have any feedback (gameplay or bug-wise), let me know.
And...what about the ore's armors ?
The ores in the mod currently do not have armor sets. I plan to add this in Version 1.2
(BUG): Tools are now properly enchantable.
(BUG): Swords can now properly block when right clicked.
(TWEAK): Graphite Blocks now automatically drop a graphite chunk. Graphite Chunks are no longer made via smelting.
This patch will come out on November 26th.
Thank you for a total of 200 downloads since this mod relaunched 4 days ago.
I have a couple of questions:
Firstly, can you add how the new tools' durabilities compare to the normal tools?
Secondly, can the ores be only used for tools? Can they be used for armor as well?
Many thanks!

Currently, only tools can be made in the mod. Armor will be added in Version 1.2 or later of the mod.
I've added the durability comparing in the main post under the tools section.
Armor can not be made in the mod just yet. It will come soon.
