Sulfur cubes have the ability to absorb deepslate, either through picking it up or being interacted with it. This provides the regular/football effect to the mob when hitting it.

Template:Infobox block Deepslate is a stone type found deep underground in the Minecraft:Overworld that functions similarly to regular Minecraft:stone, but takes significantly longer to mine.

Obtaining

Breaking

Deepslate can only be obtained by mining it using a Minecraft:pickaxe with the Minecraft:Silk Touch enchantment, otherwise it drops cobbled deepslate. If broken with any other tool, it drops nothing. The breaking time for deepslate is twice the time for Minecraft:stone.

Script error: No such module "breaking row".

Natural generation

Deepslate makes up the majority of the solid Minecraft:blocks generated below Y=0 in the Minecraft:Overworld. Minecraft:Stone is gradually replaced from Y=8 to Y=0 until it is completely replaced by deepslate.

Deepslate also generates in ancient cities.

  1. REDIRECT Template:Block distribution

Generated loot

On ancient_city/city_center/city_center_2, a furnace can generate with 24 deepslate inside of it.

Smelting

Deepslate can be smelted from cobbled deepslate. Template:Smelting

Post-generation

If a world generated before Caves & Cliffs: Part II is loaded after the update, the Minecraft:bedrock layer between Y=0 and Y=4 is replaced with deepslate.

Usage

Deepslate can be placed in three orientations, similarly to Minecraft:logs. Silverfish can enter and hide in deepslate, creating an infested block.

Note blocks

Deepslate can be placed under note blocks to produce "bass drum" sound.

Issues

Trivia

  • According to Brandon Pearce, the reason for changing the name "grimstone" to "deepslate" was because the word "grim" had too many connotations related to a negative feeling and therefore did not accurately describe the block as to what it actually was. The name "deepslate" was eventually chosen because of its location within the world and to more accurately represent that it is a type of slate.<ref>Template:Tweet</ref>
  • Similar to Minecraft:stone, the orientation of the texture varies depending on the coordinates.
