I know alot of people would say use potions and search everywhere but does that really sound like very helpfull advice does it? If not i have a different way of mining that you could be intrested in if the Hardmode ores are hard to find. After killing the WoF the three new ore that are blessed to your world Adamantite, Cobalt, and Mythril are a bit harder to find.

Step one: use a drill to dig all the way down to the underworld

Step two: dig long horizontal tunnels branching from the vertical tunnel from step one

Step three:optional: use a Spelunker Potion, Torches, or the Mining Helmet to see the ores easier

Step four: after digging you will eventually find chasms in the ground that have ores on the walls, using the spelunker potion or torches you will be able to see them and mine them. Repeat step 3-4 to find what you need.

You should also use Thorns Potion and a Ironskin Potion to defend yourself from unseen Enemies. Or you could also build a couple walls around you to all in all prevent them from even getting close to you

Also you should mine around the ores you just found incase there are more ores.
