How to keep vanilla ores from spawning in custom dimensions

I created a new dimension with the overworld generation type. How can I make so that vanilla ores (like coal,iron,diamond,etc) won't spawn?

Maybe create a custom block…

Maybe create a custom block that you would like in your dimension and have it’s generation replace the vanilla ores and make the spawn rate really high. But I don’t recommend going over 32. This isn’t perfect though so I recommend the next solution.
 

You can also make a block called “Fake Stone” or like “Moon Stone” or something like that that has a similar texture to normal stone and have it generate in your dimension instead of the normal stone. But make sure you change the texture enough that you won’t get in trouble for it.
