First Appearance

Update 0.12.1

Nether Quartz Ore (AKA Quartz Ore) is a Block added in Update 0.12.1.

Obtaining[]

Nether Quartz Ore spawns exclusively in the Nether, and does not spawn anywhere in the Overworld. It can usually be found in groups of 4-5, or greater.  

The block can be mined with a Wooden Pickaxe but the block itself can only be obtained by using a Pickaxe Enchanted with Silk Touch.

Usage[]

Nether Quartz Ore can be mined with any Pickaxe. Upon being mined, it will drop Nether Quartz.

Trivia[]

  • Nether Quartz Ore was not needed before Update 0.12.1, as Nether Quartz was dropped by the Nether Reactor.
  • Nether Quartz Ore has the same Blast Resistance as other Ores.
  • It drops the most Experience orbs, in terms of ores, when mined.
  • It is one of the two ores that can be mined with a Wooden Pickaxe, the other being Coal Ore.
