Ore Harvester allows players to mine entire ore veins instantly, by breaking one of the blocks in it while crouching. The time it takes to mine is increased by the amount of ore that's in the vein. All ore items will be dropped at the initial broken block's position. It is compatible with Silk Touch and any other enchantments. Diagionally connected blocks are also broken, as long as it's visible with an air block.
The mod has various config options to edit the behaviour. There is also a blacklist file available where you can specify which pickaxes are allowed to use the mod's feature.
