At levels 5-15, you can find all ores that are in the game from coal to diamond.

You are familiar with the pickaxe restrictions when it comes to higher value ores? (iron pick or better to mine diamonds, diamond to mine obsidian etc.)
Okay, will do that. Will gather a ton of wood make some ladders and start digging.

Thanks for the tips
