Adds satisfying mining sounds to ores without needing a resource pack

About this Mod
Makes each overworld ore play its own unique sound when mined. Intended to make mining ores like coal and copper less tedious, and to make rarer ones like gold and diamonds more satisfying to find.
Each new ore sound is made from vanilla sounds mixed together, so no resource pack is required to make it work.
If you want to use this on a server, the datapack or mod needs to be installed there to work properly.
Ores currently included:
- Coal Ore
- Iron Ore
- Copper Ore
- Gold Ore
- Redstone Ore
- Emerald Ore
- Lapis Lazuli Ore
- Diamond Ore
- Deepslate variants of above ores
Warning: Your inventory space may run out very quickly.
Inspired by Terraria's ore sounds.
