MiningStats
Every seasoned miner knows the frustration of losing count after hours of strip mining. Did you find twenty diamonds or twenty-five? Was that Ancient Debris haul worth the Nether trip? Stop guessing and start tracking with MiningStats, the ultimate client-side solution for data-driven excavation in Minecraft. This lightweight Fabric mod transforms your heads-up display into a powerful analytics dashboard, giving you real-time insights into your mining efficiency without cluttering your screen.
Real-Time Ore Tracking and Fortune Analysis
The core strength of MiningStats for Minecraft lies in its precision. Once you activate a session by pressing the designated key, the mod instantly begins counting every vanilla ore you break, from common Coal to elusive Ancient Debris. It intelligently distinguishes between player-mined blocks and those destroyed by TNT, pistons, or commands, ensuring your statistics remain accurate. Beyond simple counting, the mod calculates your Fortune bonus in real time. It compares the base drop rate against what you actually received, showing you exactly how many extra resources your enchanted pickaxe has generated. This feature is invaluable for players testing different enchantment levels or optimizing their gear for maximum yield.
Smart Detection and Deepslate Support
Modern Minecraft updates introduced deepslate variants for most ores, which can complicate manual tracking. MiningStats handles this seamlessly by recognizing deepslate ores and optionally merging them with their stone counterparts in your statistics. The mod supports ten vanilla ore types out of the box, including Nether Quartz and Lapis Lazuli. For those playing with modpacks, the configuration file allows you to add custom block IDs, such as zinc from Create, ensuring no resource goes uncounted regardless of your mod list.
Customizable HUD and Session Control
A cluttered screen can ruin immersion, so MiningStats offers extensive customization options for its overlay. You can toggle between a compact view and a detailed full mode, adjust background opacity, and move the widget to any of the four screen corners. A smart visibility feature ensures the HUD only appears when you are holding a pickaxe, keeping your interface clean during combat or exploration. The session timer tracks active mining time, automatically pausing when you stop breaking blocks or manually pause the session, giving you an accurate measure of your productivity per hour.
If you are looking for a streamlined way to manage this tool alongside other modifications, the foxygame.net launcher simplifies the entire process by offering a curated add-on catalog where you can locate MiningStats and enable auto-updates with a single click. This integration ensures you always have the latest version compatible with your current game build without digging through external repositories.
Milestones and Visual Feedback
Gamification makes grinding enjoyable. As you reach specific thresholds, such as mining 100 diamonds, the mod triggers a chat alert to celebrate your achievement. Mining rare blocks like Diamonds or Ancient Debris also produces a subtle golden flash effect, providing satisfying visual feedback for your efforts. When you eventually leave the world, a comprehensive session summary prints to your chat, detailing total counts, Fortune bonuses, and time spent, allowing you to review your performance before starting fresh.
How to Install and Get Started
Getting started is straightforward for anyone running the Fabric loader. To download MiningStats, visit the official repository and ensure you have Fabric API installed, as it is a required dependency.

Optional tools like Mod Menu and Cloth Config allow for in-game configuration, letting you tweak milestone thresholds and display settings without editing JSON files manually.
