The
Laser Drill creates ores out of nothing – the world stays intact, ideal for spawn areas. It needs lots of power: 128 EU/t, 100 ticks per ore.
The drill depth (GUI, default = its own height) sets the spread like the real world: diamond deep down, coal up high. In the Nether: quartz, nether gold, rarely ancient debris.
Lenses multiply their ore group by five:
black coal · white iron · orange copper · yellow gold · red redstone · blue lapis · light blue diamond · lime emerald · gray tin/lead/silver/nickel/aluminium/zinc · purple osmium/uranium/platinum/iridium · magenta quartz/amethyst · brown nether gold.
