About
Rockhounding Mod: Chemistry lets players build and manage an industrial factory that processes solid, liquid and gaseous ingredients into advanced materials for mid-to-late-game progression. Its default progression takes mined, initially unidentified minerals through analysis and treatment to obtain chemical elements and ultimately produce material in dust form. The interconnected machines can be combined into production chains or used individually, and support custom recipes so players can adapt workflows and plan how to prioritize resources. The project also covers alloys and their applications, laboratory work, and gas processing, including automated production of syngas, nitrogen, oxygen and rare gases. An in-game Guide Book describes the machines, while a Quest Book provides a step-by-step path for assembling the factory.

Not checked yet
It has no file for a recent Minecraft version. This is about its files for Minecraft 1.10.2 to 1.12.2.
Its author does not let other sites download its files from CurseForge, so we cannot check them.
Why we show this: a mod runs on your computer like any program, so harmful code in it can take your accounts or files. Our checks look for known signs of harm. They cannot prove that a file is harmless. In the grade: malware means no grade, and a Warning in a latest file for a recent Minecraft version lowers it.
How we checked
- FilesWe download the files from Modrinth or CurseForge and look at what is inside them and what their code can do, without running them. Fixed rules tell what is harmful.3 latest files: the newest file for each Minecraft version and loader. None is for a recent Minecraft version, so the answer above is about all of them. Recent versions: those released in the last 2 years, plus 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, among the most played in modpacks. See each file in Releases
Privacy
We have not read its code yet
It has no file for a recent Minecraft version. This is about its files for Minecraft 1.10.2 to 1.12.2.
What it sends is not known yet.
Why we show this: a mod can send things about you over the internet, like your player name or your login. Contacting an address to check for updates or download files sends nothing about you. Not in the grade: sending data can be normal for what a mod does.
How we checked
- Files readWe read the code without running it. We list each web address the code contacts while you play, and what it sends. Code that is never used is left out.None yet. See each file in Releases
AI
No sign so far that AI was used to make it
We looked for AI tools in its texts and code history and found none.
We have not read its files, images and sounds yet.
AI in the game: not checked yet
We have not read its code for AI yet.
Why we show this: some players and servers avoid projects made with AI, and AI in the game can send what you write to an online service. Not in the grade: using AI does not tell whether a project works well or is kept up to date.
How we checked
- Author on ModrinthThe disclosure form on Modrinth. Since 13 Aug 2026, Modrinth's rules require it when a substantial part of the code is AI output, when an asset is mainly AI output, or when the project or its page relies on generative AI.Not on Modrinth.
