ExtraOres
ExtraOres adds new ore resources, stone types, and tools, weapons and armor for Forge 1.14.4, aimed at players who want more world generation content.
What it does
The mod adds new ores that generate in the world, along with new stone types that they sit in. Ore blocks can be mined with the tools, weapons and armor that the mod also introduces, so the new materials feed into crafting and combat.
ExtraOres is a Forge mod for 1.14.4 only, and it is the only game version with files for this mod. It is client and server, so the server and every player need it. The project is released under All rights reserved, which means it is not open source, and a configuration file controls the generation settings.
The author notes that players who want more gems can also look at the ExtraGems mod, which is a separate project and is not required by ExtraOres.

How it compares
Gems Plus is a Forge mod for 1.20.1 that is client and server and not open source, so it targets a later version than ExtraOres. Super Simple Nether Ores is another Forge option for 1.20.1, also client and server and released under All rights reserved, and it focuses on the Nether rather than the overworld. MobDropOres is open source under the MIT License and covers 1.7.10 – 1.10.2, a different range from ExtraOres's single version.
