Simply Quarries

Simply Quarries, an addon for Industrial Upgrade, lets quarries dig ores and chunks in the Technology category, with a quarry upgrade path added through modules.
What it does
Simply Quarries adds quarry machines that dig ores and whole chunks as an alternative to the quarries of IU Quantum Quarry. Its quarry digs work with Industrial Upgrade, which is required, so the addon cannot run without it.

Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. The code is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only. Files cover 1.12.2, 1.19.2, 1.20.1 and 1.21.1.
