Mossy cobblestone is a variant of cobblestone with moss growing in its cracks. Its texture resembles block of stone with a largely cracked surface and moss spread all over it. It is mainly used for crafting or as building block.

Obtaining[]
Mossy Cobblestone requires a pickaxe to be mined, in which case it drops itself. If mined without a pickaxe, then the mining is slower and it drops nothing.
