Template:ForTemplate:Infobox block Andesite is a Minecraft:block of igneous rock, most often found in large pockets in the ground.

Obtaining

Breaking

Andesite can be mined using any Minecraft:pickaxe. If mined without a pickaxe, it drops nothing. Template:Breaking row

Natural generation

Template:See also Andesite can generate in the Minecraft:Overworld in the form of ore blobs. Andesite attempts to generate in two batches. The first batch generate 2 times per chunk in blobs of size 0-864, from elevations 0 to 60, in all biomes. The second batch has Template:Frac chance to generate blobs of size 0-864, from elevation 64 to 128. Template:IN, andesite can replace stone, diorite, granite, polished andesite, polished diorite and polished granite. Template:IN, andesite can replace stone, diorite, granite, tuff and deepslate.

Template:IN, andesite generates naturally in coral reefs, replacing some Minecraft:coral as part of coral crusts.

Usage

Andesite has the same blast resistance as Minecraft:stone, meaning it can be used as a substitute for stone when building.

Note blocks

Andesite can be placed under note blocks to produce "bass drum" sounds.

Trivia

  • In the real world, Template:W rock comes from above-ground Template:Ws. Finding andesite underground means the world's surface used to be lower, and the lava flow was buried.
    • Template:W is andesite's below-ground equivalent: The two rocks come from the same kind of Template:W, but diorite rocks are formed from solidifying underground Template:Ws. The long, slow cool makes it look coarser than andesite.
