Minecraft:Block of Diamond

Template:Infobox block A block of diamond, known internally as a diamond block, is a precious mineral Minecraft:block equivalent to nine Minecraft:diamonds.

Obtaining

Breaking

Blocks of diamond can be mined with an iron pickaxe or better. Template:Breaking row

Natural generation

Blocks of diamond generate as the cores of "obsidian rooms" and "lava rooms" in woodland mansions.

Usage

Blocks of diamond can be used to store Minecraft:diamonds in a compact fashion.

Beacons

Blocks of diamond can be used to "power" a Minecraft:beacon. The beacon can be powered by a 3×3 square of diamond blocks underneath it, and can optionally also include a 5×5, 7×7 and 9×9 layer in the shape of a pyramid under the original layer to increase the effects from the beacon. The layers do not have to be entirely diamond blocks, as they may also contain blocks of iron, blocks of gold, blocks of netherite, and blocks of emerald.

Sulfur cube

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