If I understand what you're asking correctly,

SELECT co, col, nl, l1, m1, max(ore) as ore, sum(ore) sum_of_ore
FROM xxx
GROUP BY co, col, n1, l1, m1;

Normally, you want to avoid using the max() aggregate function since it
forces a table scan. In this case, you're using the sum() aggregate and
can't avoid paying for a table scan.
