No Copper Ore
No Copper Ore stops copper ore from generating in the world, so cave and surface searches for copper return less of it.
What it does
The mod changes world generation so that copper ore no longer spawns in caves. Players who want a copper-light world, or a challenge run that depends on finding little copper, can use it on a server with a data pack. Server owners install it on the server; players may add it to their own client, but the server needs it. Builds cover 1.18 – 1.21.10 on Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, with a data pack option.
Key features
Fewer copper ore veins
Copper ore is kept from spawning in caves, reducing how much copper a player finds while exploring.
Data pack option
The same change is also available as a data pack for servers that do not run a mod loader.
Challenge-friendly
The reduced copper supply suits players who want to craft and build with a limited set of resources.

What the author says
At the time of me writing this, the Copper Age Minecraft drop (update) has been out for about a week...and the community have made some amazingly spectacular creations! But...maybe there is a little too much copper ore, still. So, for anyone who doesn't really like a lot of copper, or wants a challenge to charge…
