1.17 Biome Suggestion: Tuff/Calcite Caves

These crystal caves would mainly consist of tuff and calcite, with patches of amethyst and dripstone blocks.  On these there would be dripstone and amethyst crystals respectively.  The cave update needs a crystal cave biome, and I think this would be a better, more realistic route than a crystal biome with big glowing crystal blocks (as some people are suggesting).  Tuff and calcite are also very good building blocks, and this biome would make them much easier to obtain.

Here is an image of a small example I made

(also if the devs only want amethysts to be farmed from geodes, they could make budding amethyst not generate in this biome)

  I'd suggest, that we won't get amethyst in these caves, but some other kind of crystal, that could be use as decoration and wouldn't be as hard to get as amethyst (so you would be able to take it to your base and farm there in some way - maybe like plants, but they would need both lava and water to grow? Or other kind of specific conditions)
