Ore Processing

[CelestialPhoenix]

---Ore Blocks---

• Botania Pure Daisy Converts an ore block into a "pure" ore block, stone type. (Vanilla ore when available, otherwise Gtech stone ore) Chalcopyrite to Copper Ore Black Granite Diamond ore to Diamond ore Dirt Lignite/Lignite/Anthracite to Coal ore ect... Does NOT convert the Gtech Gravel Ore varients. (due to feedback loop)

• ImEng Rock Crusher Crushes ore blocks into the Gtech Gravel Ore variant. Currently give a small amount of byproduct as a crushed ore item (instead could give a little extra of the same ore)?

• ImEng Arc Furnace Melts an ore block into 4? ingots of material. Some ores (Titanium) produce an oxide (Rutile). [avoids breaking progression] Destroys volitiles, non-metals ect... Lithium, salts, redstone, gemstones ect... do not fare well here.

• Gtech Mac/Pulv, TE Pulv Crushes ore block/ore gravel into crushed ore items. Yield/byproduct depending on machine tier (Gtech stock recipes)

• Industrial Grinder (Gtech or MM) As above- but endgame multiblock, highest yield.

• Sifting machine (Gtech? or MM) Sifts the gravel ores- high chance of byproducts by less secondary. HV sifter gives additional output to match the HV macerator EV sifter can have magical augment?

---Crushed Ore items---

• Botania Mana pool Purifies 'crushed' into 'washed' ore items Purifies 'impure' dusts

-Gtech Ore Washer Washes impurities (byproducts) out of crushed ores.

• Gtech Sifting table Sifts a washed ore for gemstones. Can be magic boosted at later levels

• Thaumcraft Native Clusters Grows clusters of pure metal from washed ores. 2 clusters per ore, yields 2 ingots per cluster. Requires at least 1 ingot of metellum aspect per ore.

• Thermal Centrifuge Typically yields a radioactive byproduct, or the heaviest element

• Gtech Mac/Pulv, TE Pulv again

---purified Ore Dust items---

• Gtech Centrifuge Extracts final byproduct to produce ore dust

---final Ore Dust items---

• Smelt
• Electrolyzer
• Centrifuge
• EBF w/ elemental fluid

To Do (Botania daisy/pool, ImEng crusher/arc furnace, TC cluster recipes added as I was doing the worldgen)

• Balance check Rock Crusher byproduct

• Balance check Arc Furnace yield

• Balance check Aspects needed for Native Clusters (amount, aspect type- how easily found/farmed?)

• Make MM sifter multiblock Add gravel processing recipes to the multiblock (totals a 2x ore yield out of the main ore and all the byproducts, HV equivalent matches Gtech pulv.). Add gemstone processing recipes to the multiblock? -2x Magical augments for sifting see #12 Type 1 boosts gemstone quality and reduces yield. (more exquisite and flawless stones) Type 2 boosts gemstone yield and reduces quality (mostly dusts and chipped/flawed stones).

Of note- Gtech macerator overclocks grants an additional 8.5% ore bonus for each tier above HV

Magically Enhanced Ore Processing

• EBF, Aerothum usage GT5u inspired oxidation-reduction ore processing. Final step using pure mineral dust. Use of CoFH's fluid Aerotheum as oxidiser Use of 8x carbon dust + [magic consumable] as reducer Over 1000Eu/t draw?

Oxidation produces a metal oxide dust; which uses mineral name not chemical name. Non metals typically produce gases- gases use chemical name ^^=fantasy mineral **=stock Gtech material

Arsenic=Ratsbane Calcium=Quicklime Coal=Ash + Carbon Dioxide ^^Cobalt=Cobaltic Copper=Cuprite or Tenorite Diamond=Carbon Dioxide Iron=Banded Iron Lead=Lithrage Mercury=Montroydite Nickel=Garnierite ^^Silver=Argite **Tin=Cassiterite

Chrome=Eskolaite ^^Gold=Aurite Quartz=(Slag + byproduct) Sulphur=Sulphur Dioxide Zinc=Zincite

Antimony=Antimonate Aluminium=Corundum Bismuth= Bismite

Beryllium=Bromellite Lithium=Lithia Manganese=Pyrolusite Potassium=Potash ^^Sodium=Natrite? Natria? Vanadium= Paramontroseite Tantalum= Coltan

Magnesium=Magnesia Molybdenum=Molybdite Phosphorus=Phosphate ^^Rare Earths=Scorched Earths (I'm sorry I couldn't resist) Scorched Earths (via centrifuge) to: --Neodymium=Didymium --Cadmium=Cadmite --Yttrium=Yttria --Cerium=Ceria --Lanthanum=Lanthana --Caesium=Caesite

Thorium=Thorianite Titanium= Rutile Uranium=Uraninite Zirconium= Baddeleyite

^^Palladium=Pallas ^^Platinum=Platino or Platonic or Adam's Catalyst or Sheldite Tungsten=Tungstate (rename Gtech Tungstate to Li-Tungstate) **Uranium=Uraninite

Chrome=Chromate ^^Iridium=Iridite ^^Osmium=Osmite Niobium=Columbite

^^Naquadah= Naquoxiite ^^Naquadria=Naquothxa

[CelestialPhoenix]

• Gtech ore wash/chemi bath Ore wash does all ores the same Chemi bath does specific ore groups Use of magic fluid to boost byproduct yield or change type:

• Magnetic Fluid (chemi bath) - TC recipe Magic fluid attracts magnetic materials Cobalt, Electrotine, Iron, Neodymium, Nickel, Redstone

• Poison Fluid (chemi bath) - TC recipe Magic fluid attracts toxic(/radioactive) materials Arsenic, Dreadium, Lead, Mercury, Naquadah, Uranium

• Magic boost (washer) - Botania recipe Brings output to 4 (5?) bonus

• Magic taint (washer) - Abyssalcraft recipe Reduces output to 2x remaining byproducts
