Emerald Ore

Emerald Ore is a block added in snapshot 12w21a. When mined with a Iron Pickaxe or better it drops Emeralds and therefore does not require smelting.

Emerald Ore is an estimated 25 times more rare than Diamonds as of 12w21a.

Notable Bugs

 * Jeb forgot to change the color of the ore in snapshot 12w21a, so it appears red rather than green.
