Mekanism: Ad Astra Ores - Space Resource Mining
Embark on an interplanetary expedition for valuable resources! This mod expands Mekanism ore mining capabilities to all five planets from the Ad Astra modification.
Main Features
Mekanism ores - tin, osmium, lead, uranium, and fluorite - can now be found on various planets of the solar system. Each ore type features unique textures specially created for the space theme.
