Mineral Grinder MK II
​
The Mineral Grinder will take all sorts of block items and grind them up. It’s an excellent way to do something with all of the blocks that fill your chests from a quarry. The MK II grinder is significantly faster at processing blocks.
Every block ground up by the Mineral Grinder has a very small chance of finding a valuable piece of dust inside the block. About 1 dust for every 2 stacks of blocks.
Unlike most machines which can only hold one type of block at a time, the Mineral Grinder can hold up to 64 of any combination of grindable blocks.
Mineral Grinders will only take items that they can grind through pipes, so you can connect them directly to your chest via an Item Pipe Filler and they’ll leave your valuables alone. You can always set a blacklist filter inside the Item Pipe Filler if you want them to leave certain blocks alone.
