Cuprum
by ApoWillow
Cuprum, a Fabric mod for Minecraft 1.20.1, expands copper with new blocks, tools, horns and a levitation block, and changes how copper oxidizes.
What it does
Copper gets a set of new building blocks: Vertical Cut Copper, Chiseled Copper and Smooth Copper, along with reworked Edgy Copper and Cut Copper textures. Copper Lamps light up when they receive a redstone signal, and a Levitator block applies a levitation effect whose strength depends on the oxidation stage of the block. Copper Blocks placed underwater oxidize faster than usual.
Rose Gold is added as a material crafted from gold and copper, with its own set of tools and armor that sits between the iron and diamond tiers. Copper Horns can be placed in dispensers to play sounds, and several dispensers can be combined to increase the volume, the same way Goat Horns work. A Copper Wrench rotates blocks when used, including from inside a dispenser. Files are published for Fabric only, for 1.20.1, and the code is open source under the MIT License. The mod requires Fabric API, and it runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it.

What the author says
Cuprum is a mod which adds new features to copper to add new reasons to mine it and make it a more functional ore while adding features to add features that should have been in minecraft a long time ago. One day maybe... (Not planned but if you want to port it yourself let me know:D)
