Obtaining

Breaking

Calcite drops as an item if mined by any Minecraft:pickaxe. If mined without a pickaxe, it drops nothing. Script error: No such module "breaking row".

Natural generation

Calcite generates naturally as part of the structure of amethyst geodes, between the smooth basalt and block of amethyst layers. It also generates in the stony peaks in strips.

Usage

Calcite is used for decoration. It has lower blast resistance and hardness than most other stone-related blocks.

Note blocks

Calcite 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 calcite, either through picking it up or being interacted with it. This provides the regular/football effect to the mob when hitting it.
