'''End stone''' is a [[Minecraft:block]] that appears in [[Minecraft:the End]] and, apart from [[Minecraft:Structure|generated structure]]s, makes up all of the solid ground that exists in that dimension.

== Obtaining ==
=== Breaking ===
End stone can be obtained using any [[Minecraft:pickaxe]]. If mined without a pickaxe, it drops nothing.

{{breaking row|horizontal=1|End Stone|Pickaxe|Wood}}

=== Natural generation ===
[[File:TheEnd.png|300px|thumb|right|A large island consisting entirely of End stone.]]

End stone is found only in [[Minecraft:the End]], where it makes up all the floating islands that generate in the dimension.

{{block distribution}}

=== Post-generation ===
==== Exit portal ====
The 16 End stone blocks under the edge of the [[Minecraft:exit portal]] are replaced when the [[Minecraft:ender dragon]] is respawned, and again when it is killed. Because [[Minecraft:end crystal]]s, which are used to respawn the dragon, are [[Minecraft:Renewable resource|renewable]], this makes End stone renewable as well.

{{IN|bedrock}}, [[Minecraft:End gateway]]s generate a small floating island of End stone when an [[Minecraft:entity]] travels through, for the entity to land on if there are no valid locations.

If an exit portal exists at a different position from the world origin (for example, an old exit portal from before 1.9), it is completely converted into End stone if the ender dragon is re-summoned.

== Usage ==
End stone has a [[Minecraft:blast resistance]] of 9, which is 3 more than that of ordinary [[Minecraft:stone]]. This is the highest blast resistance of any block movable by pistons besides [[Minecraft:anvil]]s{{only|BE}}, [[Minecraft:ancient debris]], and [[Minecraft:netherite block]]s.

It cannot be picked up by [[Minecraft:endermen]] nor destroyed by the [[Minecraft:ender dragon]].

It is the only block on which [[Minecraft:chorus flower]]s can be planted.

}}

=== Note blocks ===
End stone can be placed under [[Minecraft:note block]]s to produce "bass drum" sound.

=== Sculk catalyst interactions ===
End stone can be replaced by sculk via [[Minecraft:sculk catalyst]]s.

=== Sulfur cube ===
{{In development|section=1|drop=Chaos Cubed}}
[[Minecraft:Sulfur cube]]s have the ability to absorb End stone, either through picking it up or being interacted with it. This provides the regular/football effect to the mob when hitting it.

== Issues ==
{{Issue list}}

== Trivia ==
* End stone's texture is an inversion, geometric translation, and recoloration of the [[Minecraft:cobblestone]] texture. (Specifically, the texture is shifted 3 pixels up, and 8 pixels to the right.)
* In the descriptions for several [[Minecraft:Youtooz]] figures, End stone is consistently referred to as "soul stone."<ref>[https://youtooz.com/products/minecraft-enderman Enderman - Youtooz Collectibles]</ref><ref>[https://youtooz.com/products/ender-dragon Ender Dragon - Youtooz Collectible]</ref>
* In a [[Minecraft:Block of the Week]] article, [[Minecraft:Jens Bergensten]] remarked he wanted to think of some sort of "fabled history" for the block, but struggled to think of anything worthwhile.<ref>{{Mcnet|block-week-end-stone|Block of the Week: End Stone|May 5, 2017|[[Minecraft:Marsh Davies]]}}</ref>
* Analyzing End stone in a [[Minecraft:material reducer]] reveals it to have a structure similar to [[Minecraft:w:Silicon_carbide|carborundum]].{{only|be|ee}}
