Mining in Minecraft gets tedious fast — especially when you're digging massive quarries by hand or wrestling with lava pools every few chunks. Additional Enchanted Miner Mod solves this by bringing enchantment-powered mining machines inspired by BuildCraft's quarry system, letting you automatically collect resources with Fortune or Silk Touch applied. With over 329,000 downloads on Modrinth and active development through March 2026, this mod by Kotori316 has become a go-to choice for players who want industrial-scale resource gathering without the hassle of liquid management or complex wiring setups.

Key Features

QuarryPlus — An upgraded quarry that digs down to Y=1 across areas up to 256×256 blocks. Enchantments improve fuel efficiency, making large-scale excavation far more practical than vanilla mining.
ChunkDestroyer — Flattens a 16×16 chunk area in under an hour, perfect for clearing terrain for mega builds or farm setups.
PumpPlus & Advanced Pump — PumpPlus adds liquid-pumping capability to QuarryPlus (yes, you can drain the Nether), while Advanced Pump operates faster than BuildCraft's standard pump for standalone fluid removal.
LaserPlus — Replaces up to 32 BuildCraft lasers with a single block, reducing lag and simplifying your power delivery wiring.
WorkbenchPlus — The dedicated crafting station required to build all machines from this mod.
Spawner Controller — Lets you change the mob type of a neighboring spawner, opening up new possibilities for XP farms and mob grinders.

Pros & Cons

Pros

Machines accept multiple energy types — RF, EU, MJ, and Forge Energy — so it works alongside most tech mods
Enchantment support on miners means Fortune and Silk Touch apply automatically during excavation
Built-in liquid removal eliminates the need to deal with water and lava flooding your quarry
LaserPlus significantly reduces entity count compared to using dozens of BuildCraft lasers
Wide version support from 1.12.2 through 1.21.1 across four mod loaders

Cons

Requires BuildCraft as a dependency, which adds setup complexity for players new to tech mods
Multiple additional API dependencies (Architectury, Cloth Config, Scalable Cat's Force) increase the initial install effort
Older Minecraft versions (1.12.2–1.16.5) only support Forge — no Fabric option
