Ores should be less common to favor exploration, caving, mining and actually building automated mining systems (with for example the thumper from Flaxbeard's). Here's the changes I'm imagining:
[x] Make regular ore veins less common (4x to 6x less)
[x] Make regular ore veins slightly bigger
[x] Generate large, rare clusters of ores
[ ] Generate huge, super rare clusters / fractals of some ore types (motherload!!)
[ ] Readd Biomes O' Plenty biome specific gem spawning
For biome specific ore generation (BoP / Thaumcraft / maybe big fractals), this wiki page might be useful.
