Lapis Lazuli Ore

Lapis lazuli ore is the ore block from which lapis lazuli is obtained.

Mineral veins
Lapis lazuli ore can generate in the Overworld in the form of mineral veins. Lapis lazuli ore attempts to generate one time per chunk in veins of size 7, from a central most concentrated altitude 16 spreading 16 more blocks in each direction for a total range of 0 to 32, in all biomes.

Obtaining
A stone pickaxe or better is required to obtain a drop from lapis lazuli ore. If mined with a Silk Touch enchanted pickaxe, it drops itself, otherwise it drops 4-9 lapis lazuli and 2-5 experience.

When mined with a Fortune enchanted pickaxe, there is a chance for the drops to be multiplied by between 2 and the level plus 1, up to a maximum of 2 to 4 at level III (for a maximum of 36 lapis lazuli dropped).
