Minecraft:Diamond Ore: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 11:07, 16 April 2026

Template:Infobox block Diamond ore is a rare Minecraft:ore that generates deep underground, and drops Minecraft:diamonds when mined.

Deepslate diamond ore is a variant of diamond ore that can generate in Minecraft:deepslate and Minecraft:tuff blobs, and is more common than its regular variant.

Obtaining

Breaking

The diamond ore block itself (rather than its Minecraft:diamond drops) can be obtained by mining it with an Minecraft:iron pickaxe or better, with the Minecraft:Silk Touch enchantment. When mined without Silk Touch, diamond ore drops a single diamond and Template:Xp. The maximum number of diamonds dropped from a diamond ore block can be increased with Minecraft:Fortune. Fortune I gives a Template:Frac chance for 2 diamonds, averaging 1.33 diamonds, Fortune II gives a 25% chance (each) to give 2 or 3 diamonds, averaging 1.75 diamonds, and Fortune III gives a 20% chance (each) to give 2, 3, or 4 diamonds, averaging 2.2 diamonds.

Ore feature of diamond ores

Ore feature of diamond ore.

Diamond ore generates in the Minecraft:Overworld in the form of ore features, and is more common as the Minecraft:altitude decreases. Diamond ore blocks have a chance to not generate if they are exposed to Minecraft:air; however, they do not have a reduced chance to generate if exposed to water or lava, making them appear more commonly on the walls of Minecraft:aquifers.

Diamond ore generation occurs in four batches:

7 blobs of 1-5 ores per Minecraft:chunk, from Y=16 to Y=-63. There is a 50% chance to not generate an ore block if it is next to air.
1 blob of 1-23 ores every Template:Frac chunks, from Y=16 to Y=-63. There is a 70% chance to not generate an ore block if it is next to air.
4 blobs of 1-10 ores per chunk, from Y=16 to Y=-63. Ore blocks do not generate if they are next to air.
2 blobs of 1-10 ores per chunk, from Y=-4 to Y=-63. There is a 50% chance to not generate an ore block if it is next to air.

Diamond ore can replace Minecraft:stone, Minecraft:andesite, Minecraft:diorite, Minecraft:granite, Minecraft:tuff, and Minecraft:deepslate. Diamond ore that replaces tuff or deepslate becomes deepslate diamond ore, which is more common than its regular variant because diamond ore is more likely to generate at lower altitudes.

Deepslate diamond ore also generates as part of Minecraft:fossils that generate below Y=0, replacing some of the Minecraft:bone blocks.

Deepslate diamond ore is most commonly found at Y=-58 and Y=-59.

Template:Block distribution

Usage

The primary usage of diamond ore is to mine it for Minecraft:diamonds.

Smelting ingredient

Template:Smelting

Note blocks

Diamond ore can be placed under Minecraft:note blocks to produce "bass drum" sounds.

Sulfur cube

Template:In development Minecraft:Sulfur cubes have the ability to absorb diamond ore and deepslate diamond ore, either through picking them up or being interacted with them. This provides the regular/football effect to the mob when hitting it.

Trivia

In some blob formations, Minecraft:ores connect diagonally.
After the Minecraft:Caves & Cliffs update, diamond ore is the only type of Overworld ore that largely keeps the classic ore texture, with only some minor tweaks to coloration.
The Minecraft mechanic that diamond ore replaces coal ore in fossils that generate in deepslate layers, is in accordance with the common misconception in real life that Template:Ws form from highly compressed Template:W.
- In fact, diamonds mostly form from carbon that comes from Template:Ws,<ref>How do diamonds form? They don't form from coal! – Geology.com in 2012</ref> and are completely unrelated to coal which form from dead plants.
