ForgeAbout
This mod introduces a new hammer tool, along with crushing recipes for all ore blocks and raw ores, providing an increased yield. Perfect for early-game resource gathering.
Modifications
The Crushing Hammer
Start by crafting the Crushing Hammer with some copper and a bit of iron. It has 74 durability and can be repaired on an anvil with copper ingots, putting your surplus copper to good use.
Ore dusts
Using the Crushing Hammer, you can break down ingot-type ores into Raw Ore Dusts, a valuable byproduct for further processing.
Raw Ore Dust can be smelted or blasted into ingots, effectively doubling the base output:
Gems and other ores
Other ores also have crushing recipes, with diamonds and emeralds capped at double the base output for balancing purposes.

Balancing
For this mod to ease the early game grind without being overpowered, the Crushing Hammer's outputs are capped at a yield equivalent to Fortune II.
This allows Fortune III to stay relevant, due to it still having the better average yield.
