A sulfur spring is a Minecraft:feature consisting of a pool of Minecraft:sulfur and sulfur spikes on the surface of the Minecraft:Overworld above Minecraft:sulfur caves.

Description

Sulfur springs generate only above Minecraft:sulfur caves on the surface in any overworld Minecraft:biome. They are small ponds surrounded by Minecraft:sulfur, Minecraft:cinnabar, Minecraft:tuff, Minecraft:granite, and Minecraft:sulfur spikes containing Minecraft:potent sulfur and Minecraft:magma blocks in a configuration suitable for Minecraft:geysers.

They come in 10 variants across four sizes, with rarity increasing as size increases.

Trivia

The first iteration of sulfur springs was inspired by geyser mounds before Mojang settled on the name "spring". The second iteration was inspired by volcanic and sulfur-rich formations such as the Template:W in Template:W.<ref>Template:Mcnet</ref>
