A lodestone is a Minecraft:block that can be used to alter Minecraft:compasses to point toward it.

Obtaining

Breaking

Lodestones require a Minecraft:pickaxe to be mined, in which case it drops itself. If mined without a pickaxe, then the mining is slower and it drops nothing.

Script error: No such module "breaking row".

Generated loot

Script error: No such module "lootChest".

Usage

Lodestone Compass

{{#vardefine: control | right click on mouse or left trigger on gamepad }}Using a Minecraft:compass on a lodestone causes the compass to point to the lodestone, indicated by an enchantment glint effect on the compass. This works even in Minecraft:the End and Minecraft:the Nether. If the lodestone is broken, or in a different dimension, then the compass spins randomly, as ordinary compasses in the End and Nether do. If the lodestone is destroyed while a paired compass is in a Minecraft:chest, shulker box, item frame, armor stand, or any other storage item, the compass does not register that the lodestone is destroyed until the item is retrieved. Placing a lodestone back in the exact place as the original lodestone while the compass is still in a container prevents unpairing.

Piston interactivity

Lodestones cannot be pushed by Minecraft:pistons. They also cannot be pushed nor pulled by sticky pistons. It is one of the few blocks with that property that can be destroyed by explosions.

Job site

Exclusively in 25w14craftmine, a Minecraft:villager can claim a lodestone to take on the profession of a traitor, which trades mine ingredients.
