Diamond Ore is a type of Ore that drops a Diamond when mined. Diamond Ore is most commonly found in layers 0-16 above Bedrock. Diamond Ores are one of the rarest ores in the game, like Emerald Ore.

Obtaining

To obtain diamonds, the ore has to be mined using an Iron Pickaxe or above. The ore Block will drop a diamond, but when the player uses an Fortune-Enchanted Pickaxe on it, its drops are increased depending on the level of the enchantment used on it.
