What is OreVault ?
OreVault adds a complete mineral progression spanning all three dimensions of Minecraft. From the first Copper ingot to the legendary Painite gem, each of the 20 tiers brings new tools, armor, bows, hammers, improved furnaces, blast furnaces, and unique storage options — all carefully balanced to integrate naturally with the vanilla experience.
Whether you are a casual builder or a hardcore survivalist, OreVault gives you meaningful goals to pursue in every dimension.
