Mining Master

Mining Master is a mod developed by HellionGames and Nekomaster of Infernal Studios, originally for Minecraft version 1.16.5 and spanning up to 1.19.2. It adds Enchanting Gems to the game, ores that can be applied to tools and armour in a Smithing Table to unlock both pre-existing and new, gem-exclusive Enchantments.

Release 3 of the mod also adds the Gem Forge, where multiple Enchanting Gems can be melted down and imbued into Diamond Tools and Armour to create Supra & -Ultima Tools and Paragon Armor respectively, acting as side-grades to Netherite tools and armour; Where Netherite provides knockback resistance and heat-immune armour and tools, Ultima and Paragon tools and armor provide a variety of otherwise unobtainable enchantment levels, granting greatly increased maneuverability over a Netherite user.

Enchanting Gems can be found in the Overworld, Nether and End, and generate with a very high Y level range in single-block veins. In addition to generating randomly, gems also have native biomes in which they generate more commonly. Information on what each gem is, where it spawns naturally, and what enchantments (both old and new) they bestow can all be found on the CurseForge page.
