A tuff blob.

Template:See also Tuff can generate in the Minecraft:Overworld in the form of ore blobs. Tuff attempts to generate 2 times per chunk in blobs of size 0-864, from elevations -64 to 0, in all Minecraft:biomes. Tuff can replace Minecraft:stone, Minecraft:andesite, Minecraft:diorite, Minecraft:granite, and Minecraft:deepslate. Any Minecraft:ore that generates in tuff becomes its deepslate variety if it generates below Y=0, or its stone variety if it generates at Y=0 or above.

Additionally, tuff can generate in large Minecraft:ore veins that consist of Minecraft:iron ore and blocks of raw iron below Y=0. It also generates as part of Minecraft:sulfur springs.

-== Trivia ==
-* In real life, [[Minecraft:wikipedia:Tuff|tuff]] is a strong type of igneous rock which forms from compressed ash resulting from volcanic eruptions, which sees extensive use in Armenian architecture. Tuff in ''[[Minecraft:Minecraft]]'' is somewhat similar, with the texture representing that of a rough, uneven surface which appears to be the result of volcanic ash formation.
