Minerdz Quartz
by MFNminerdz
Minerdz Quartz adds quartz ore that generates in the overworld, plus a chloritoid ore and blocks in the End, for Forge 1.20.1.
What it does
In the overworld, quartz ore generates in stone and deepslate, placed in the same manner as Nether quartz ore. A second ore, Silicate, forms in the End and is called chloritoid. The mod is a world generation mod with a decoration side: its quartz blocks use the same blockset as vanilla quartz, with slight texture differences. Servers that run it need every player to install it too. Only the Forge loader and game version 1.20.1 are covered, and the mod is released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later, so it is not open source.
