A sulfur spring is a Minecraft:feature that can be found on the Minecraft:Overworld surface above Minecraft:sulfur caves and consists of a pool of water surrounded by Minecraft:sulfur, Minecraft:sulfur spikes, and other Minecraft:rocks. The water pool contains Minecraft:potent sulfur that periodically erupts, creating a Minecraft:geyser.

Description

Sulfur springs generate only above Minecraft:sulfur caves on the surface in any overworld Minecraft:biome. They are small ponds surrounded by Minecraft:sulfur, Minecraft:cinnabar, Minecraft:tuff, Minecraft:granite, and Minecraft:sulfur spikes containing Minecraft:potent sulfur and Minecraft:magma blocks in a configuration suitable for Minecraft:geysers.

They come in 10 variants across four sizes, with rarity increasing with size.

Trivia

The first iteration of sulfur springs was inspired by geyser mounds before Mojang settled on the name "spring". The second iteration was inspired by volcanic and sulfur-rich formations such as the Template:W in Template:W.<ref>Template:Mcnet</ref>
