'''Lapis lazuli''' is a mineral required to [[Minecraft:enchant]] items in an [[Minecraft:enchanting table]]. It is also a major source of [[Minecraft:blue dye]].

== Obtaining ==
=== Mining ===
When mined with a [[Minecraft:stone pickaxe]] or better, [[Minecraft:lapis lazuli ore]] or deepslate lapis lazuli ore drops 4–9 lapis lazuli. With the [[Minecraft:Fortune]] III enchantment, a single block has a chance of dropping up to 36 items. The ore is most common at y level -2.

=== Trading ===
{{Trade sources}}

Aside from villager gifts in ''Java Edition'', trading is the only renewable way to obtain lapis lazuli.

=== Villager gifts ===
{{IN|java}}, cleric [[Minecraft:villager]]s give [[Minecraft:player]]s lapis lazuli if they have the [[Minecraft:Hero of the Village]] effect.

== Usage ==

=== Enchanting ===

1–3 pieces of lapis lazuli are required to use an [[Minecraft:enchanting table]] to [[Minecraft:enchant]] an [[Minecraft:item]]. More specifically, the enchanting table UI shows 3 options (see [[Minecraft:Enchanting mechanics]] for details): the first, second, and third options cost 1, 2, and 3 lapis lazuli, respectively.

=== Crafting ingredient ===

Lapis lazuli can be used to make [[Minecraft:blocks of lapis lazuli]] and [[Minecraft:blue dye]]. {{IN|bedrock}}, it can also be used directly as a substitute for blue dye.

{{IN|bedrock}}, lapis lazuli can be also used in banner patterns:
