Making ores renewable with lava.

When lava touches water , it have small chance to generate "covered" block instead of regular stone (1/100 or smaller chance) , it give you copper/iron/gold/diamond dust. You need 9 pieces of dust to create one resource. That would be fun if there was more renewable resources. The "covered" ore veins are more common than regular ore veins.

    No diamond. It is valuable because it is unfarmable. It makes a good currency. It's ancient, iconic, and unlike every other ore (except netherite), RARE. Rare enough to be difficult to obtain, but not so rare that it's almost impossible to get a whole stack.

    No dust, either. Make it drop iron, copper, and gold nuggets instead.
