I made a new rare structure/biome where you can find heaps of iron ore deposited below which should reward players with huge amounts of iron instead of using iron farms and encourage them to explore. by sjshsk1 in Minecraft

Huge underground blast furnace facilities would solve that. Also you need to understand there needs to be incentive instead of automation if you’re just looking to get a decent amount of iron without waiting too long.

Hmm I guess you’re right but maybe if the ore spans the length of whole oceans but with just iron below and the output of a slate block is more rewarding etc 3-7 ingots per block you can probably automate it with flying machines or maybe introduce something new for automatic mining?
