Underground Biomes Mod for Minecraft 1.5.2

I’ve always felt that the underground of minecraft didn’t get enough attention.  They have, what, 15+ biomes for the surface of minecraft, yet only one for underground.  You spend most of your time on survival mode underground looking for ores and items to help you build up your world and survive (I do, at least).  This mod fixed that by adding a ton of new types of stone.  The first ones you’ll see are the Seimentary rock, which are Limestone, Chalk, Shale, Siltstone, Lignite, Flint, Greywacke, and Chert.  When broken they give you their respective blocks, not cobblestone or cobblestone versions of them (kind of like sand, but they’re not affected by gravity).  Picture of all of them:


The brick slabs are on the very top.  It’s also worth noting now that normal stone is almost completely removed with this mod, and there are no stairs with these bricks.  If you try making stairs with the new stone bricks it will give you normal stone brick stairs.  All other recipes are the same.  The next rocks are Metamorphic.  All of the rocks are listed by the depth which they appear, starting from the surface.  These are the deepest.  They are Gneiss, Eclogite, Marble, Quartzite, Blue Schist, Green Schist, Soapstone, and Migmatite.  This is what they look like:


Not quite as big as the one I described, but you can see how massive it would be without the gap in the middle.
Anthracite is made by putting four coal in a crafting table, and it will cook 32 items inside of a furnace.  No fuel efficiency lost with this one, just sweet inventory space gained.  The mod also changes the way ore generates, and you can turn it off if you need/want to.  If you have a mod that adds ores into minecraft, you’ll want to turn it off.
This mod also has a place in creative mode, giving you a ton of new decorating options.  I don’t see much of a reason not to download it, except that the item names are a bit hard to say.  On a side note, all of these rocks do exist in real life, which is pretty cool in my opinion.  It also takes the blame for the weird names off of the mod maker and puts it on the geologists.
