Oreberry bushes are commonly found in caves and have similar effects to a cactus if touched. However, they do much less damage and do not destroy items. More importantly, they grow "berries" of metal, such as aluminum and tin.

The different oreberries and bushes for them

There are 6 types of Oreberry Bushes:

Oreberry bushes can only be planted on solid blocks. They must be planted in light level of 12 or below in order to be plant-able, light level of 9 and below to grow, and bonemeal cannot be used to accelerate this process.

It should be noted that each oreberry only gives one nugget when smelted or 1/9 of an ingot when smelted in a smeltery. A significantly large farm could produce many ingots an hour, but there's no way to fully automate such a farm as of now.

Essence oreberries (which glow green and yellow, similarly to vanilla XP) do not give you metal when smelted, but rather can be right-clicked for an XP boost, and have replaced the silver oreberry bush. Unlike other oreberry bushes, Essence Oreberries appear to grow on any light level.

Notes

  • It is unknown whether the block it is planted on affect it's growth rate.

Trivia

  • Because of Oreberry Bushes, most metals in hexxit now become a renewable material.

  • Giving the player Oreberry Bush with data value 19 or higher, all the oreberry bush will be named "Tin Oreberry Bush", but it is actually other oreberry bush.
