Iron Ore

''This article is about Iron Ore. For the block, see Iron (Block). For the Ingot, see Iron (Ingot).''

Iron is a mineral commonly found inside stone blocks underground or in cliffs as shown in the picture. In Survival Test, its only function was to give the player an iron block if mined. It was introduced in Creative mode in update 0.28.

In Indev and Alpha, iron ore can be smelted in a furnace to make an iron ingot; iron ingots are used to make all the medium quality tools: armor and Flint and Steel.

In Alpha, iron ore requires a stone, iron, or diamond pickaxe to successfully extract.
