? Periodic Expansion

Periodic Expansion is a Minecraft mod that aims to bring the Periodic Table of Elements into the game in a meaningful and expandable way.
Instead of adding random materials, this mod focuses on real chemical elements, their properties, and how they can be translated into Minecraft gameplay.

The project is designed to be educational, immersive, and progression-friendly, making it suitable for both survival gameplay and modpacks.

⚙️ Current Features

? New Elements

The mod currently introduces the following elements:

Lithium (Li)

Beryllium (Be)

Each element is implemented as a new ore, found naturally in the world and processed into usable materials.

⛏️ Ores & Materials

Lithium Ore

Beryllium Ore

Refined Lithium Ingots

Refined Beryllium Ingots

These resources integrate into the vanilla mining progression and are balanced for survival gameplay.

?️ Equipment & Gear

Both Lithium and Beryllium can be used to craft full equipment sets, including:

Tools (Pickaxe, Axe, Shovel, Sword, Hoe)

Armor (Helmet, Chestplate, Leggings, Boots)

Each material has its own stats and characteristics, inspired by real-world properties:

Lithium: Lightweight, fast tools, lower durability

Beryllium: Stronger, more durable, suitable for mid-game progression
