Gravel mounds: A new idea for the Nether Wastes

Alright, as Mojang is adding new biomes to the nether, the original one is likely to be left out of the new updates,making it a flyover biome. However, I have a simple idea to make it more useful.

This structure is called the Gravel Mound, as it is well, a gravel mound. It would look like this:


It would spawn between Y-35 and Y-85,with the structures being larger the higher it spawns on the Y-Axis.

 

So you may be wondering, what's the point?

These each contain 1-3 blocks of Ancient Dust,(Depending on the Size) which can be crafted into Ancient Debris if you have 9 of them. It can help you in the long run, if you decide to live in the Nether, even if you need to find 12-36 of them to create an Ingot. Here's what it would look like once you find the Ancient Dust.

    I like the idea of gravel mounds or even a new biome for them to go with it, dont think ancient dust is a good idea as it will make netherite too easy to make as well as further discouraging nether underground mining as its the only block so far worth going underground for. Could perhaps add some other resource in the mounds, or even better make it a home for a new termite-like nether mob.
