Gunpowder from Ore!
Java mod listed for Minecraft 1.20. Download on the author's site.
⬇ Download on CurseForge

Gunpowder From Ore adds a new ore into the game; gunpowder ore. Each block drops 1-2 uncut gunpowder which can be processed into a stone cutter to get gunpowder. Fortune can increase the yield of uncut gunpowder, or each silk-touch piece of ore can be processed into 3 gunpowder.
Gunpowder ore can be found in deepslate level areas (Y-42 to 0) and regular level areas (Y0 to 64), with a unique texture for each (see gallery).
This mod is supposed to add a second alternative to obtaining gunpowder, instead of just creepers. This is a good utility mod if your using mods which require lots of gunpowder in the short term, or if you just want more gunpowder I guess.
