More Tools
by sal34
More Tools adds copper, redstone, emerald, lapis lazuli and quartz pickaxes and swords, giving players new tools built from materials that vanilla Minecraft uses for other items.
What it does
Each of the five added materials gets its own pickaxe and sword, crafted at a standard crafting table from the matching material. The set extends the toolkit so players can pick between several tiers of mining and combat gear that the base game does not offer.
The mod is a beta, so the author warns that it may contain bugs and unfinished or unpolished content. Further tools and weapons are planned for later updates. Installation covers the server and each player's game. Builds are published for NeoForge only, for 1.21.1 and 1.21.4, under the MIT License, which is not open source.
Key features

Emerald and lapis lazuli pickaxes and swords join the set, each made from its matching material.

A quartz pickaxe and a quartz sword complete the added materials, all using the same crafting recipes.
