'''Mineshafts''' are common underground [[Minecraft:structure]]s primarily found underground in the [[Minecraft:Overworld]]. They consist of interlinked 3×3 tunnels with incomplete [[Minecraft:rail]] lines running through them, with [[Minecraft:planks|oak wood]] platforms bridging gaps or hanging in larger exposed caverns. Mineshafts are the only structures where [[Minecraft:cave spider]] [[Minecraft:monster spawner]]s can be found.

Mineshafts often generate on the surface in [[Minecraft:badlands]] biomes. Badlands mineshafts are composed of dark oak planks and [[Minecraft:fence]]s with railways more complete above ground. Since badlands biomes generate [[Minecraft:gold ore]] often and at higher altitudes, they are good places to easily find gold.

Mineshafts can be located with mineshaft [[Minecraft:explorer map]]s, which are found in secret chests in [[Minecraft:abandoned camp]]s.


Mineshafts are the most common generated structures in the Overworld, having a 0.4% chance to attempt to begin generating in every chunk.

Template:Redirect Template:For Template:Infobox structure Mineshafts are common underground Minecraft:structures primarily found underground in the Minecraft:Overworld. They consist of interlinked 3×3 tunnels with incomplete Minecraft:rail lines running through them, with Minecraft:oak planks platforms bridging gaps or hanging in larger exposed caverns.

A unique variant of mineshafts made out of Minecraft:dark oak wood can generate on the surface in Minecraft:badlands biomes.

Template:Relevant tutorial

Generation

Mineshafts generate underground in any Overworld Minecraft:biome except for the Minecraft:deep dark (although a mineshaft can overlap). They generate before Minecraft:chunk features such as Minecraft:ores. Multiple mineshafts can generate near each other, producing larger complexes. When mineshafts intersect with Minecraft:caves and Minecraft:canyons, corridors generate a bridge of Minecraft:planks over empty space, either suspended with Minecraft:iron chains above or supported by Minecraft:log pillars below. When a mineshaft intersects with an Minecraft:aquifer, a barrier of solid blocks generates to prevent fluids from flowing into the mineshaft, often resulting in corridors cut off from the rest of the mineshaft.<ref>Template:Bug</ref>

Mineshafts often generate on the surface in Minecraft:badlands biomes. Badlands mineshafts are composed of dark oak planks and Minecraft:fences with railways more complete above ground. Since badlands biomes generate Minecraft:gold ore often and at higher altitudes, they are good places to easily find gold.

Mineshafts can be located with mineshaft Minecraft:explorer maps, which are found in secret chests in Minecraft:abandoned camps.

Mineshafts are the most common generated structures in the Overworld, having a 0.4% chance to attempt to begin generating in every chunk.
