Industrial Pickaxes (Auto-smelt pickaxes!)

Industrial Pickaxes adds tools with a special ability, the ability to smelt bars from ores!
The chance of smelting a bar from ore is dependant on how much ore is needed to make a bar normally, the less the better.
Industrial pickaxes are, of course, slightly more expensive than their standard counterpart, and they're also somewhat slower.
Alternatively, you can reforge a pickaxe to become industrial, conferring similar benefits, but also becoming slower as a result. (This feature is currently defunct)
As a nice bonus, there exists a pickaxe that can prospect useful materials out of certain blocks, which will only help to supply your crafting and building tasks.

It even has mod support!
Currently supported mods:
Calamity (Ores + 1 new pickaxe)
Mod of Redemption (Ores + 1 new pickaxe)
Thorium (Ores)
Metroid Mod (Ores)
