About this project

What does BetterGeo add?

BetterGeo is a mod with more geology for Minecraft! We have increased the geological content and also made it appear more like reality by adding rock types, minerals, metals, gemstones and exciting areas of application for the new materials!

We have created new recipes including rock types and resources to make the areas of application relevant and interesting. E.g. there are possibilities to create new high tech products like jet packs and heart starters. Also, some of the products that were already present in Vanilla have been modified, e.g. different types of ovens. The geology and the areas of application present in BetterGeo are similar to reality but with some simplifications.
