Template:Infobox item Emeralds are minerals that are used primarily as the currency for Minecraft:trading with Minecraft:villagers and Minecraft:wandering traders.

Obtaining

Mining

Minecraft:Emerald ore drops one emerald when mined using an Minecraft:iron pickaxe or better. If the pickaxe is enchanted with Minecraft:Fortune, it may drop an extra emerald per level of Fortune, up to a maximum of 4 emeralds with Fortune III. If the ore is mined using a pickaxe enchanted with Minecraft:Silk Touch, it drops itself in ore form instead of as an emerald.

Trading

Emeralds can be obtained by Minecraft:trading with Minecraft:villagers and Minecraft:wandering traders, since they are the currency that villagers use for trading. Villagers and wandering traders buy various goods in return for emeralds. Trading is typically a faster way to obtain emeralds than by mining, as an emerald ore is rarer than a diamond ore.

Template:Drop sources

Minecraft:Foxes that are holding emeralds also have a chance of 100% to drop the emerald they are holding upon death. Alternatively, the player can drop a food item to entice the fox to drop the emerald without killing it.

Template:IN, Minecraft:wandering traders have a chance of 8.5% (increased by 1% per level of Minecraft:Looting) to drop emeralds when killed while showing the item as trade offer. The amount corresponds to the available trade if it is available; if the player holds a Minecraft:hay bale, Minecraft:water bottle, or Minecraft:baked potato, the trader drops 1 emerald; if the player holds a Minecraft:milk bucket or Minecraft:water bucket, the trader drops 2 emeralds; and if the player holds a Minecraft:fermented spider eye the trader drops 3 emeralds.

Beacons

Emeralds can be used to select powers from a Minecraft:beacon. The player must select one of the available powers and then insert an emerald into the item slot.

An emerald can be substituted for an Minecraft:iron ingot, a Minecraft:gold ingot, a Minecraft:diamond or a Minecraft:netherite ingot in a beacon.
