When playing in modpacks with Mekanism, two ores in particular seem to be missing in the ore processing chain: Silver and Aluminum. Currently, I'm only able to get two ingots out of a silver/aluminum ore (due to Thermal Foundation's pulverized ores), and I'd love to get more output, as this is quite necessary in many bigger modpacks (I do especially struggle with aluminum in Galacticraft).

Yes, I did see silver in Mekanism (sorry for that one), but aluminum is still missing.

You could use JAOPCA to automatically add support for most ores to the Mekanism ore processing including Silver, Aluminum, and many others (almost all ores with correct oredict.)

Also I am pretty sure that in 1.12 mekanism has built in support for 5x ore processing with silver.

it does, JEI shows the crystals, shards, clumps, etc for it.

We will not personally be adding support for any external ores while JAOPCA is still around. However, I've just made some serious improvements to our ore processing framework that will make it easy for us to make additions in the future. Marking this as closed.
