How to Find Allthemodium in ATM11 (Mining Dimension Guide)
In All The Mods 11, Allthemodium ore generates only in the Deep Dark biome at Y 10 and below, exposed on cave surfaces near Ancient Cities, and needs a Netherite-tier pickaxe. Vibranium spawns in every Nether biome between Y 64 and 127 (and in The Other), and Unobtainium spawns in the End Highlands biome of the outer End islands up to Y 128. The Mining Dimension — reached with a Teleport Pad made from 4 Allthemodium Nuggets and an Ender Pearl — also generates Allthemodium ore between Y 65 and 247, weighted toward the bottom.

Allthemodium is the signature progression metal of the All The Mods packs: three tiers — Allthemodium, Vibranium, Unobtainium — gating the best gear, the alloys, and the ATM Star. None of it can be bought from the server; you mine it or trade for it with other players. The numbers below come straight from the Allthemodium mod's worldgen files (version 4.0.7, the one ATM11 ships), so they match what JEI shows in-game.
Before you go: Netherite
The quest book puts Allthemodium at the start of Chapter 2 for a reason: the ore needs a Netherite-tier pickaxe or better to drop anything. Get Netherite, beat the Wither and the Dragon, then start the hunt. Fortune helps; the quests also suggest Occultism or Mekanism ore processing once you have a few ingots to multiply.
The three ores, the three places
Ore | Where | Height | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
Allthemodium | Overworld, Deep Dark biome only | World bottom up to Y 10 | Placed on exposed cave surfaces (10 attempts per chunk), so it hangs from ceilings and walls of caves around Ancient Cities. It glows, which is how you spot it. |
Vibranium | Every Nether biome, plus The Other | Y 64–127 | Also on exposed cave surfaces, 10 attempts per chunk. Think ancient-debris hunting, but look up. |
Unobtainium | The End, End Highlands biome (the outer islands) | Y 0–128 | Only 3 attempts per chunk and it sits on floors rather than ceilings. Bring an elytra or a jetpack. |
Finding Allthemodium in the Deep Dark
You are looking for the Deep Dark biome — the sculk one, with Ancient Cities and Wardens. Nature's Compass will point you at the nearest Deep Dark within 10,000 blocks. Once there, drop below Y 10 and follow caves; the ore is only ever generated where it touches air, so strip-mining solid stone finds nothing. Sneak, do not sprint, and mine the ore off the cave ceiling.
While you are in the city: brush the suspicious clay in the floors for the Allthemodium Smithing Template. Allthemodium armour and tools are a smithing-table upgrade from Netherite, and the upgrade keeps your enchantments.
Use the Mining Dimension
Your first Allthemodium should become nuggets. 4 Allthemodium Nuggets + 1 Ender Pearl = a Teleport Pad. Place the pad in the Overworld, empty both hands (this is the part everyone misses), sneak and right-click, and you are in the Allthemodium Mining Dimension. Place a second pad there to get back, or carry the first one — pads do not drop when mined, so plan for two.
The Mining Dimension is a flat, disposable world built for digging. Allthemodium ore generates there too, between Y 65 and 247, biased toward the bottom, but only one vein attempt per chunk — it is spread thin, so cover ground rather than depth. The pack also injects a long list of modded ores into the Mining Dimension (Uraninite, Inferium, Prosperity, Soulium, Arcane Crystal, Runic Stone, Dark Ore and more), which makes it the best place for bulk ore runs in general. On a server it is also simply polite: keep the big digs out of the overworld.
Quarries void Allthemodium. The quest book warns that quarries in the Mining Dimension now mine Allthemodium but void the drops. If you want Allthemodium, mine it by hand (Ore Sight potions help); let the quarry handle everything else.
Vibranium, the Nether and The Other
Vibranium is in the Nether ceiling zone, Y 64 to 127, in every Nether biome, again only where it touches a cave. Fire Resistance, a Netherite or Allthemodium pickaxe and a lot of looking up is the whole strategy. Place a Teleport Pad in the Nether and it takes you to The Other, the mod's own Nether-side dimension: new biomes, Piglin Villages, Ancient Pyramids and Dungeons, and its own Vibranium veins. The Ancient Pyramid holds the Piglich, a 1,000-heart boss that drops the Piglich Heart you will need for alloys and the ATM Star.
Unobtainium and the End
Unobtainium only generates in the End Highlands biome, which is the big outer islands past the main island, from Y 0 up to 128. It is the rarest of the three (3 placement attempts per chunk) and spawns on floors, so it is easier to spot from the air. A pad placed in the End leads to The Beyond, the mod's End-side dimension; the quest chapter has a visit quest for it.
Gear checklist before the hunt
Netherite-tier pickaxe minimum, with Fortune (Apotheosis can push it past III).
Fire Resistance for the Nether trip; an elytra, jetpack or plenty of pearls for the End.
Nature's Compass set to Deep Dark or End Highlands.
A backpack with a magnet upgrade — Ultimine scatters drops everywhere.
Night Vision, and something to deal with a Warden (or the patience to sneak).
What to do with your first ingots
Nuggets for two Teleport Pads first. Then the smithing upgrade for your pickaxe, because Allthemodium tools mine faster and the armour set gives 24 armour, 20 toughness and 50% knockback resistance plus per-piece perks (water breathing, immunity to the Warden's Darkness, no elytra damage). Vibranium and Unobtainium follow the same rule: infrastructure first, fashion second. Unobtainium armour tops out at 40 armour, 60 toughness and full knockback resistance, and all three metals feed the Vibranium-Allthemodium, Unobtainium-Allthemodium and Unobtainium-Vibranium alloys the ATM Star recipe eats by the block.
On VYPR. The Deep Dark you find with
/rtp(3,000–8,000 blocks from spawn) has usually not been picked over, unlike the ones near spawn. Claim a chunk over your Teleport Pads so nobody breaks them, and if you are short after a bad-luck streak, ask in chat — players with essence farms sell Allthemodium-family ingots, and/trademakes the swap safe.
Frequently asked questions
What Y-level is Allthemodium in ATM11?
Y 10 and below in the Overworld, but only inside the Deep Dark biome, and only on exposed cave surfaces. In the Mining Dimension it generates between Y 65 and 247, weighted toward the bottom.
What pickaxe do I need to mine Allthemodium?
Netherite tier or better. Diamond will not drop the ore.
How do I get to the Mining Dimension in ATM11?
Craft a Teleport Pad from 4 Allthemodium Nuggets and an Ender Pearl, place it in the Overworld, empty both hands, then sneak and right-click. The same pad in the Nether goes to The Other, and in the End to The Beyond.
Where does Vibranium spawn?
In every Nether biome between Y 64 and 127, on exposed cave surfaces, and also in The Other. Unobtainium is in the End Highlands biome of the outer End islands, from Y 0 to 128.
