This page is about the ore. For the solid diamond block, see Diamond (block).Diamond ore is generally considered to be the most valuable and elusive block in the game. It can be found inside stone blocks very deep underground, and you may often find lava in its proximity. It can be mined for a diamond gem using an ironpickaxe or better. The diamond gems can be used right away in a workbench to craft diamond tools, which are the best in the game. This, along with Coal and Redstone, do not require any smelting and can be used immediately. You can also create diamond blocks by crafting nine diamond gems together in a 3x3 square using the workbench.
