My boyfriend, as soon as he spawned on the generic sand, dug down 20 meters and hit a huge cave (but no branches) filled with goodies like iron, coal, gold, redstone... you name it! Everything except diamond.
Btw, he knew nothing about mineral depths, F3 (ah, the magic of it), X-ray packs, etc etc.
As an added bonus, there wasn't a single hostile mob in there. Is this even possible? Hmm...
Anyways, does anyone have had a similar experience? Except for sub-surface dungeons : D
Sounds like a severe case of luck... Anyways, I've never had that happen to me early in the game. I'm too busy punching wood!
But you said there were no hostiles in the cave, well remember no hostile mobs can spawn withing 24 blocks of you or your spawnpoint, so that could have contributed to the lack of monsters.

Personally, I think it beginners' luck
