Ore Detector | Find Diamonds & Rare Ores Addon

The Ore Detector addon gives you a craftable, holographic radar to track down diamonds and Ancient Debris without resorting to messy X-ray texture packs. If you are tired of strip mining for hours just to find basic resources, this tool is an absolute lifesaver for your survival playthrough.

Let’s be real, blindly digging at Y-59 hoping to hit a diamond vein gets old fast. Instead of slapping on a permanent X-ray pack that ruins the aesthetic of your world and feels like straight-up cheating, this Minecraft Bedrock addon introduces a balanced, tech-based solution. Just craft the handheld scanner, crouch-click to open the UI, and pick your target resource. The tool sweeps a 16-block radius and projects a slick, color-coded holographic trail showing exactly where the ore is stashed. It even displays directional arrows and height indicators so you know exactly where to point your pickaxe.



Let us be completely real, the vanilla mining loop gets incredibly stale after your third or fourth server wipe. You boot up a new SMP, grab some iron gear, and immediately consign yourself to staring at deepslate for hours on end, doing the same repetitive branch mining technique we have all been using for years. It is a massive time sink. The Ore Detector addon entirely disrupts that boring meta without crossing the line into cheap, game breaking cheat territory. Instead of using sketchy Xray texture packs that ruin the visual immersion and get you banned by server admins, this MCPE utility mod introduces a balanced, highly interactive gadget straight into your survival world.

Here is exactly how this beast operates in the game. Once you craft the detector, holding it actively scans a sixteen block radius around your character. It does not just ping randomly. The device actually spawns a slick holographic arrow and a directional particle trail right in front of you, guiding you exactly to the loot. Plus, you get a clean text prompt right above your hotbar telling you the exact distance and whether the target is above or below your current elevation. The coolest feature by far is the filtering system. If you crouch and use the device, it pulls up a custom UI menu where you can calibrate the scanner. You can set it to sweep for literally any ore, filter strictly for high value drops like diamonds and gold, or target one specific resource if you are desperately hunting for lapis to finish your enchanting setup.

You can filter for specific drops like Gold and Emeralds, or just run the "Valuable and Rare" preset to sweep for high-tier loot only. Because the creator designed the scanner to distribute tracking logic across game ticks, this MCPE custom mod runs flawlessly on multiplayer realms without tanking your server TPS. Whether you are hunting Netherite in the lava lakes or deepslate diamonds, it works perfectly.

Stop wasting your enchanted gear on dead-end caves. Download this mod for Minecraft PE, craft your first detector, and completely optimize your next mining session.
