Quartz in Overworld
Java mod listed for Minecraft 1.21. Downloads from the MC Java Mods app on Android.
⬇ Download on CurseForgeThe author built this one for Minecraft 1.21.1 on NeoForge. On other versions it may install and then do nothing.
Are you tired of having to go to the Nether to get quartz for your Redstone constructions? Or to use in modpack recipes? Your problems are over. This mod adds quartz to the overworld, just like regular Minecraft ores. To extract quartz in the overworld you need a pickaxe of iron level or higher.
Update 2.0.0
Update 2.0.0 adds a new ore to the game, Black Quartz. With it it is possible to obtain the Black Quartz Shard and make tools stronger than those made from netherite. More updates will come soon like tools that mine 3x3 and other things.

This is my first mod, so bugs are to be expected. Please report any existing bugs in the comments.
