Outside of the Caves and Cliffs Update's new biomes and locations, what's the difference between caves and strip mining? As of currently, not much. You get similar materials in every cave and in strip mining.
But what if there was a difference? I introduce you to the bloated ores. Every existing ore would have a bloated version, which has a texture with the minerals larger than the non-bloated ones. This indicates that they can drop more resources than their normal versions. For example, a normal diamond ore would drop one piece of diamond, but a bloated ore would drop 2 or more diamonds without enchantments (This also applies to intact ores, like iron and gold). How these ores would work is that they would generate within caves, since the minerals are more exposed. This is a simple solution that would not only encourage players to go into caves more to hunt for minerals, but also amplify the excitement to find caves even further in the current update.
