Adamant
by Bapt63P
Adamant adds a rare ore that generates deep underground in small veins, and a set of tools crafted from the refined metal for Forge on 1.20.1.
What it does
The ore spawns naturally in the world, in scattered pockets far below the surface where it is hard to find. After refining, it is turned into a full kit of tools: pickaxe, axe, shovel, hoe and sword. These tools last longer and dig faster than the standard vanilla materials, which gives players an upgrade path that leaves the rest of the game's balance largely alone.
The mod is intentionally lightweight and focused on mining. It adds no armor and no other systems, so it fits both a fresh world and an existing adventure without adding much complexity. Installation needs Forge for 1.20.1, and the mod must run on the client and the server. The files are released under All rights reserved, so the code is not open source.
