Talk:Diamond Ore

Natural generation
Under this specific section is following statement "Diamond ore only appears at Y level 16 and below, and can be found in veins of 3–8...". Are there not veins of 9? RobinEH (talk) 11:15, 1 August 2015 (UTC)

9 and 10! But the page now reads 1-12 which I doubt, does anybody have the knowledge to clarify if veins of more than 10 are possible? (without merging 2 veins.) Hexalobular 1 Jan 2016

Veins with 10 ore can be found in seed "-8246714680227619312" (without citation marks of course) at 377/10/1, 52/8/360, 1066/9/898, 593/12/1023, 312/9/307 and -22/8/-59 (and 9-ore veins at 361/11/-19, 77/12/-487, 1166/12/1374, 1096/9/1270, 1198/13/1266, 769/10/930, 170/7/586, 315/14/284, 331/11/1088, 138/9/944 and -475/12/372) All of these fit into a standard shape of a 2X2X2 cube with an extra ore block on top and another on the bottom (only 1 extra block for the 9 block veins) Screenshots at https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B5c6qRTAo-4nSjI2WUhzOXprQkE&usp=sharing Hexalobular (talk) 10:09, 4 January 2016 (UTC)


 * Could these be a result of viens combining? -PancakeIdentity (talk) 00:02, 23 August 2016 (UTC)

No, they would be more random and wouldn't all fit in the same standard shape. --Hexalobular (talk) 01:54, 28 August 2016 (UTC)

We need a better way to refer to specified vein size and actual vein size. I think that it is causing confusion. In the page it says 0-8 vein size but the vein size according to the mineral vein is fixed at 8. Furthermore, the size parameter does not correspond with the max amount of diamonds that should be spawned. Max amount is 10. So, if we want to put a range it should be 0-10. Correct?
