Here is a repost of the question I asked earlier:

 I am trying to do a custom reaction where the reagent is any metal ore, and I can't seem to get it right.  Any boulder available will be picked up.  I just want Metal Ore Boulders to be picked up.

Here are some of my failed guesses

[REAGENT:A:1:BOULDER:NO_SUBTYPE:METAL:NONE]
[REAGENT:A:1:BOULDER:NO_SUBTYPE:METAL:NONE] [METAL_ORE]
[REAGENT:A:1:BOULDER:NONE:INORGANIC:NONE][METAL_ORE]
[REAGENT:A:1:METAL_ORE:NONE]
[REAGENT:A:1:METAL_ORE:NO_SUBTYPE]

There's already a gigantic topic about this here: http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=53740.0

I don't know if it's the most elegant method, but giving a "metal" reaction class to all metal stones would probably help.
