Cobblestone

Cobblestone is a common block, obtained from mining stone. Its texture resembles block of stone with a largely cracked surface. Cobblestone is mainly used for crafting or as a common building block.

Obtaining
If cobblestone is mined with any pickaxe, it will drop itself; otherwise, it will drop nothing.

Stone
If stone is mined with a pickaxe that is not enchanted with silk touch, it will drop cobblestone.

Natural generation
Cobblestone occurs naturally in dungeons, strongholds, villages, jungle temples, underwater ruins and woodland mansions.

Water and lava
When water and flowing lava come into contact, the flowing lava is replaced with cobblestone. However, if the lava flows on top of the water from above, stone will be created instead.

Usage
Cobblestone can be used as a basic building block, as it is highly blast resistant and fairly common.

Silverfish
Silverfish have the ability to enter and hide in cobblestone, creating a monster egg.

Repairing
Stone swords, pickaxes, axes, hoes and shovels can be repaired with cobblestone in an anvil.
