Enhanced Nature
Enhanced Nature, by XxRexRaptorxX, adds rare fancy trees, several kinds of ore veins in stone and sand, and quicksand to newly generated terrain.
What it does
Terrain generation gains a set of added features: rare fancy trees, Rex's Tree Pack tree generation, and veins of sandstone, sand, cobblestone, clay, deepslate and silverfish stone placed through the world. Quicksand is added as a surface feature. Newly generated chunks show these features, so existing terrain keeps its current layout.
Magma Core must be installed alongside Enhanced Nature, as the author lists it as a required dependency. Enhanced Nature runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it. Builds cover Forge and NeoForge for 1.18.2 – 1.21.10, with v.3.0.0 for 1.21.10 on NeoForge and v.2.1.1 for 1.20.4 on Forge as the latest files. The code is licensed under All rights reserved and is not open source.
Key features

Ore veins in stone
Sandstone, cobblestone, deepslate and silverfish stone veins appear within the stone layers of generated terrain.
Sand and clay veins
Sand and clay veins are placed in the terrain, giving sand and clay deposits more varied shapes.
Quicksand

Rex's Tree Pack

Use cases

Who it’s for: Players who want more terrain variety in new worlds, and server owners who run a world on Forge or NeoForge with Magma Core installed.
How it compares
Ore Veines+ is an ore generation mod for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across 1.19.2 – 26.2, under the MIT License and not open source. Mining World is Forge and NeoForge only, covers 1.19.2 – 1.21.8 and is under All rights reserved. Quicksand (NeoForge) is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 or later and covers 1.18.2 – 1.21.1, so it is the only option here with an open-source license. All of these run on client and server, as Enhanced Nature does.
