This mod adds a massive cave dimension and changes the overworld caves too! With loads more stone types, a few new ores, a new boss, and more dungeons.
This project is abandoned and will likely not receive updates, I made another cave mod (Infinite Abyss) which is available for later versions and has much more content.



To get to the massive cave dimension just make a Bedrock Miner, then right click it on the lowest layer of bedrock in the overworld, then jump into the black portal it makes Make sure you have space in your hotbar for a special item you will be given - you will need it! The bedrock miner also works like a diamond pickaxe
You can right click with the pickaxe on layer 127 in the cave dimension to get back, but BE CAREFULL - put some blocks 2 blocks above the portal in the overworld otherwise you might end up in a loop falling into the portals as soon as you appear. And you may need to bring fire resistance potions for when you return to the overworld, you might appear in lava and need them
Dark stone can be crafted into cobblestone.
There is a boss which looks a lot like mob d from the list of possable mobs to be added in 1.13 (The Phantom won), it drops a Blaze King helmet which is better than diamond, the boss spawns in the cave dimension so be carefull when exploring.

If you're looking for something like this for 1.16.5 or 1.18.2 then I made a new mod here: https://www.planetminecraft.com/mod/infinite-abyss/ which adds new underground dimensions too, and even uses some of the same textures as this mod.
