What's added?
Ore XP Orbs makes Copper, Iron, and Gold ores drop experience orbs when mined, similar to ores like Diamond, Emerald, Lapis lazuli and Coal.
Because the experience is dropped as XP orbs instead of being added directly to your XP bar, it works naturally with Mending. Your equipped Mending tools and armor can use the XP to restore durability just like with vanilla XP orbs.
Fortune works normally, while Silk Touch prevents XP from dropping and gives you the ore block as usual.

Features:
- ⛏️ Copper, Iron and Gold now reward XP
- 🪨 Supports both regular and Deepslate ores
- 🟢 Drops XP orbs at the mined ore
- 🔧 Fully compatible with Mending
- 💎 Fortune works normally
- ✨ Silk Touch prevents XP drops
XP rewards:
- Copper Ore: 0–2 XP
- Iron Ore: 1–3 XP
- Gold Ore: 2–4 XP
For comparison, vanilla Coal Ore drops:
0-2 XP
