Diamond near the surface?

(I searched the forums regarding this, but couldn't find anything. If you know of a thread regarding this, please just post the URL.)

 

I recently installed Attack of the B-team and it's working perfectly. However, shortly after loading my first world on it, I went into an opening near the surface and found Diamond Ore, right there, in plain sight, and there was a lot of it (about 8-12 ore). Is this an intentional mod, or is my version bugged? I found it at about Y: 55. If this is intentional, I'd like to suggest it be changed, that's just waaaay too easy.

 

 

EDIT: Just found Gold and Redstone not too far off. I really hope this isn't intentional...

working as intended.  the resources are easy to find so that you can spend less time mining and more time mad science-ing.

That is intentional. It's the same modified ore spawning that they used in Hexxit. It's supposed to help you get into the more advanced mod stuff quickly.

Hmm, well, after a bit of research, it appears that the mods present in this pack make it so that Diamond equipment is no longer the best. So I guess it's okay. Thanks for the responses.

CofH Core does this by the way, in case you were curious.

I was. Much appreciated.

It seems like a really cheaty feature at first, but in mod packs that don't have quarries and advanced sorting for all the extra crap you get out of a quarry, it's really handy to have it so you can get stuck into the mods and reduce your vanilla mining time.
