ImpostOre
by codyhuh
ImpostOre makes some ores come alive and lash out at players who break them, with a small chance of spawning a hostile ore.
What it does
Each ore that spawns has a small chance of coming alive and attacking nearby players. Defeating a living ore with a suitable pickaxe drops the matching ore item. The chance of an ore spawning alive is 2.5 percent by default and can be changed in the config. The mod works with other mods that add ores, as long as those ores are added to the proper ore tag. It is published for Forge 1.20.1, with a client and server environment, under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only, and is open source.

Configurable spawn chance
The 2.5 percent spawn chance is set in the config file and can be raised or lowered.
