Amethyst geode

An amethyst geode.

Amethyst geodes are underground structures which serve as the only source of amethyst, tuff, and calcite.

Generation

Structure

Amethyst geodes consist of a hollow shell of blocks of amethyst with budding amethyst blocks randomly generated throughout. Amethyst crystals generate within the structure on any amethyst block. Surrounding the amethyst is a shell of calcite, which itself is surrounded by a shell of tuff.
