Diamond In The Rough
by digitalpear
Diamond In The Rough lets dragon fireballs that land near obsidian turn some of it into diamond ore, so diamonds can come back after they have been mined.
What it does
When a dragon's fireball lands close to obsidian, a chance applies that the obsidian changes into diamond ore, and the chance can be set through a gamerule. The mod is client and server, so players and the server both need it, with Fabric API required on Fabric. Files cover 1.20 – 1.21.10 on Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, and the code is open source under the Apache License 2.0.
Key features
Renewable diamonds
Diamond ore can appear again from obsidian, so the supply does not end once the first ore is mined.
Fireball conversion
Obsidian near where a dragon's fireball lands can become diamond ore.
Configurable chance
A gamerule sets how likely the obsidian conversion is to happen.

When a dragon's fireball lands near obsidian, it will turn into an obsidian diamond ore. This block is a combination of the properties of obsidian and diamond ore. The chance for obsidian turning into diamond ore is configurable via gamerule.
