Natural generation

The second batch has 1⁄6 chance to generate ores of size 0-864, from elevation 64 to 128. Template:IN, granite can replace stone, andesite, diorite, polished andesite, polished diorite, and polished granite. Template:IN, granite can replace stone, andesite, diorite, tuff, and deepslate.

In addition, granite generates as part of large copper Minecraft:ore veins, Minecraft:coral reefsTemplate:Only, and in desert village armorer houses, as well as part of Minecraft:sulfur springs.

Trivia

• Template:W rock comes from underground Template:Ws that turned cold. It is often pinkish in color because of its Template:W minerals.
  • Template:W is another magma chamber rock, but it has less Template:W in it than granite. This is in accordance with granite's crafting recipe in Minecraft:Minecraft, which consists of nether quartz with diorite.
