Template:Hatnote Template:Infobox block Diorite is a Minecraft:block of igneous rock, found in large pockets underground.

Obtaining

Breaking

Diorite can be mined using any Minecraft:pickaxe. If broken without a pickaxe, it drops nothing. Script error: No such module "breaking row".

Natural generation

{{#vardefine:params|0 }}Template:Hatnote Diorite can generate in the Minecraft:Overworld in the form of ore blobs.

in Template:Editions, diorite attempts to generate in two batches in all biomes in the Overworld. The first batch generates 2 times per chunk in blobs of size 0-864, from elevations 0 to 60. The second batch has Template:Frac chance to generate blobs of size 0-864, from elevation 64 to 128. in Template:Editions, diorite can replace stone, andesite, granite, polished andesite, polished diorite, and polished granite. in Template:Editions, diorite can replace stone, andesite, granite, tuff, and deepslate.

Diorite generates in weaponsmith houses, tannery houses, and mason houses in snowy villages.

in Template:Editions, diorite generates in coral reefs, replacing some Minecraft:blocks of Minecraft:coral crust.

Usage

Diorite has the same blast resistance as Minecraft:stone, meaning it can be used as a substitute for stone when building.

Note blocks

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

Template:Redr is diorite's above-ground equivalent: The two rocks come from the same kind of

Template:Redrs. Its fast cooling is what makes it look smoother than diorite.

REDIRECT Template:Wikipedia

Template:Redr is another magma chamber rock, but it's made of more quartz crystals. That is why in Minecraft, granite can be crafted by combining diorite and nether quartz.

In the real world, diorite is an extremely hard rock and is difficult to carve and work with.
In Story Mode, Reuben's grave on Episode 4 is made out of diorite and a new stair variant of it which cannot be found in Minecraft until the Village & Pillage update, which was announced roughly 3 years after Episode 4. It is unknown whether diorite slabs are present.
