Latest revision as of 19:55, 9 April 2026

Template:Hatnote Template:Infobox block A block of quartz, internally known as a quartz block, is a mineral Minecraft:block used for decoration. It can be turned into a quartz slab, chiseled quartz block, quartz pillar, quartz bricks, or smooth quartz block.

Obtaining

Breaking

Blocks of quartz can be mined using any Minecraft:pickaxe. If mined without a pickaxe, it drops nothing. Template:Breaking row

Natural generation

Four quartz blocks generate naturally as part of each bridge in the bastion remnant.

Crafting

Template:Crafting

Trading

Template:Trade sources

Usage

Quartz blocks cannot be used to store Nether quartz because they cannot be crafted back into it, unlike blocks made from other Minecraft:ores.<ref>Template:Bug</ref>

Note blocks

Blocks of quartz can be placed under note blocks to produce "bass drum" sounds.

Sulfur cube

Template:Message box Template:Article other Sulfur cubes have the ability to absorb blocks of quartz, either through picking it up or being interacted with it. This provides the regular/football effect to the mob when hitting it.

Trivia

Because of the low blast resistance of regular quartz blocks, it may be preferable to use two quartz slabs or smooth quartz blocks when making fortifications using quartz, as their blast resistance is higher than the other quartz block variants.
In real life, a 1-cubic-meter block of quartz (the size of a Minecraft block) is practically harder than the real life block of iron, while the hardness of a block of quartz in Minecraft is quite low.

 * Because of the low blast resistance of regular quartz blocks, it may be preferable to use two quartz slabs or smooth quartz blocks when making fortifications using quartz, as their blast resistance is higher than the other quartz block variants.
-* In real life, a 1-cubic-meter block of quartz (the size of a ''Minecraft'' block) is practically harder than the real life [[Minecraft:block of iron]], while the hardness of a block of quartz in ''Minecraft'' is quite low.
