Template:See also Tuff can generate in the Minecraft:Overworld in the form of ore blobs. Tuff attempts to generate 2 times per chunk in blobs of size 0-864, from elevations -64 to 0, in all Minecraft:biomes. Tuff can replace Minecraft:stone, Minecraft:andesite, Minecraft:diorite, Minecraft:granite, and Minecraft:deepslate. Any Minecraft:ore that generates in tuff becomes its deepslate variety.

Additionally, tuff can generate in large ore veins that consist of Minecraft:iron ore and blocks of raw iron below Y=0.

Usage

Crafting ingredient

Tuff can be crafted into several decorative variants.

Note blocks

Tuff can be placed under Minecraft:note blocks to produce "bass drum" sounds.

Sulfur cube

Template:In development Minecraft:Sulfur cubes have the ability to absorb tuff, either through picking it up or being interacted with it. This provides the regular/football effect to the mob when hitting it.

Trivia

• In real life, tuff is a strong type of igneous rock which forms from compressed ash resulting from volcanic eruptions, which sees extensive use in Armenian architecture. Tuff in Minecraft:Minecraft is somewhat similar, with the texture representing that of a rough, uneven surface which appears to be the result of volcanic ash formation.
