&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Gravel&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is a gravity-affected [[Minecraft:block]] found in the [[Minecraft:Overworld]] and [[Minecraft:the Nether]]. It is a source of [[Minecraft:flint]], which has a chance to drop when gravel is broken.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Obtaining ==&lt;br /&gt;
=== Breaking ===&lt;br /&gt;
The suitable tool to break gravel is [[Minecraft:shovel]].&lt;br /&gt;
{{breaking row|horizontal=1|Gravel|Shovel}}&lt;br /&gt;
When destroyed using a tool without [[Minecraft:Silk Touch]], gravel has a 10% chance to drop [[Minecraft:flint]] if this tool isn&amp;#039;t enchanted with [[Minecraft:Fortune]]; It has a 14.2857……% ({{frac|1|7}}) to drop flint if the tool is enchanted with Fortune I, 25% for Fortune II, and 100% for Fortune III. If the flint is not dropped, gravel drops itself instead. &amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{bug|MC-94860||Fortune 3 shovel does not drop gravel|Duplicate}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{bug|MCPE-44744||Fortune 3 in a pickaxe on gravel only drops flint|WAI}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Gravel drops itself when destroyed using a tool with Silk Touch.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Natural generation ===&lt;br /&gt;
Gravel is generated in [[Minecraft:disk]]s in [[Minecraft:river]]s, shallow oceans and small pools of water; in [[Minecraft:windswept gravelly hills]] biomes covering most of the surface; underwater covering the bottom of sufficiently deep rivers and normal, cold, and frozen [[Minecraft:ocean]] biomes, as well as their deep variants; and in the form of [[Minecraft:strip]]s in [[Minecraft:stony shore]]s.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gravel can generate in the [[Minecraft:Overworld]] in the form of [[Minecraft:ore feature]]s. Gravel attempts to generate 14 times per [[Minecraft:chunk]] in ore features of size 0-160, at all [[Minecraft:altitude|level]]s and in all biomes. It can replace [[Minecraft:stone]], [[Minecraft:granite]], [[Minecraft:andesite]], [[Minecraft:diorite]], polished granite{{only|be|short=1}}, polished andesite{{only|be|short=1}}, polished diorite{{only|be|short=1}}, [[Minecraft:tuff]]{{only|je|short=1}}, and [[Minecraft:deepslate]]{{only|je|short=1}}.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gravel can also generate as part of cold [[Minecraft:ocean ruins]], some warm ocean ruins, and in [[Minecraft:trail ruins]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In [[Minecraft:the Nether]], gravel generates naturally in layers along the shores of the [[Minecraft:lava sea]], in all biomes except [[Minecraft:Crimson Forest|crimson]] and [[Minecraft:warped forest]]s. The layers are one block deep in [[Minecraft:Nether wastes]], and 3-5 blocks deep in [[Minecraft:soul sand valley]] and [[Minecraft:basalt deltas]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ore features of gravel in the Nether attempt to replace [[Minecraft:netherrack]] 2 times per chunk in blobs of size 0-160, from levels 5 to 41{{only|java|short=1}} or 36{{only|bedrock|short=1}}, in all Nether biomes except [[Minecraft:basalt deltas]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Block distribution}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Mob loot ===&lt;br /&gt;
An [[Minecraft:enderman]] holding gravel always drops the block upon death.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Bartering ===&lt;br /&gt;
[[Minecraft:Piglin]]s may [[Minecraft:barter]] 8-16 gravel with a chance of ~8.53% ({{frac|40|469}}) when given a [[Minecraft:gold ingot]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Usage ==&lt;br /&gt;
=== Falling Block ===&lt;br /&gt;
{{main|Falling Block}}&lt;br /&gt;
If the supporting block below a block of gravel is removed, it falls until it lands on the next available block. More specifically, the gravel block turns into a &amp;quot;falling block&amp;quot; [[Minecraft:entity]], which is affected by gravity; when the falling block lands on a block with a solid top surface, it becomes a block again. More information about the falling block entity is available in the main article listed above.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When gravel falls on a player or mob, it can result in suffocation inside gravel until the destruction of the block, or moving out of it, or dying. If falling gravel lands in a space occupied by a non-solid block (such as [[Minecraft:torch]]es, [[Minecraft:rail]]s, or [[Minecraft:redstone dust]]) or non-full block (such as [[Minecraft:slab]]s or [[Minecraft:soul sand]]&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{bug|MC-77079|||WAI}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;), it breaks, then drops itself and never drops flint.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{bug|MC-118095||Dropping gravel on a torch never yields flint}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{bug|MCPE-120366||Gravel never drops flint when falling on a non-solid block. (such as a torch)}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gravel can be placed on a non-solid block without falling.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Bamboo ===&lt;br /&gt;
[[Minecraft:Bamboo]] can be placed and grown on gravel.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Crafting ingredient ===&lt;br /&gt;
{{crafting usage}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Trading ===&lt;br /&gt;
{{Trade uses}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Note blocks ===&lt;br /&gt;
Gravel can be placed under [[Minecraft:note block]]s to produce snare drum sounds.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Sulfur cube ===&lt;br /&gt;
{{In development|section=1|drop=Chaos Cubed}}&lt;br /&gt;
[[Minecraft:Sulfur cube]]s have the ability to absorb gravel, either through picking it up or being interacted with it. This provides the regular/football effect to the mob when hitting it.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== Trivia ==&lt;br /&gt;
* Explosions launch falling gravel.&lt;br /&gt;
* If a player stands on a stack of sand or gravel and the stack falls onto a non-solid block, the player can fall fast enough to take damage or even die.&lt;br /&gt;
* Gravel often falls into caves, making a mock dead end. If a player encounters a gravel dead-end while mining, removing the gravel may reveal additional passageways.&lt;br /&gt;
