Diamond

Diamonds are one of the rarest materials in Minecraft.

Mining
Diamond ore mined using an iron or diamond pickaxe will drop a single diamond. If the pickaxe is enchanted with Fortune, it can drop an extra diamond per level of fortune, allowing for a maximum of 4 with Fortune III. If the ore is mined using a pickaxe enchanted with Silk Touch, it will drop itself rather than a diamond.

A nether reactor core will drop 3 diamonds when mined in Pocket Edition.

Usage
Diamonds are used to craft the most durable tier of tools and armor.

Trading
Villager armorers, tool smiths and weapon smiths buy 3-4 diamonds for one emerald as part of their third tier trades.

Trivia

 * Diamonds are a well-known item because they are one of the most shown things on merchandise.
 * In real life, diamond is very fragile in certain directions, so it is not a good material for tools or armor, except for cutting other materials.
