Nether quartz ore is the only ore available in the Nether.
Obtaining
The nether quartz ore block itself (rather than its nether quartz drops) can be obtained by mining it with a pickaxe with the Silk Touch enchantment.
| Block | Nether Quartz Ore | |
|---|---|---|
| Hardness | 3 | |
| Tool | ||
| Breaking time[A] | ||
| Default | 15 | |
| Wooden | 2.25 | |
| Stone | 1.15 | |
| Iron | 0.75 | |
| Diamond | 0.6 | |
| Netherite | 0.5 | |
| Golden | 0.4 | |
- ↑ Times are for unenchanted tools as wielded by players with no status effects, measured in seconds. For more information, see Breaking § Speed.
Natural generation
Nether quartz is about as abundant as iron is in the Overworld, and is found between layers 7-117, but the huge open areas in the Nether expose all the ore, thus making it seem like it is more common. There is an average of roughly 79 ores per chunk. Nether quartz ore will only generate in areas where Netherrack would have been. This means that finding quartz that is naturally isolated is very rare, just like with all other ores.
Nether quartz generates in veins of 4-10 just like iron ore.
Usage
Nether quartz ore drops one nether quartz and 2 to 5 experience when mined with any pickaxe. Mining with a Fortune enchanted pickaxe will increase possible yields by 1 per level (up to 4 with level 3) (with an average of 2.1875 quartz per ore with Fortune III, based on a sample of 1280 ores.)

'''Glowstone dust''' is an [[item]] obtained from mining [[glowstone]], and is mainly used to create [[potion]]s with increased strength and decreased duration.
== Obtaining ==
=== Mining ===
When broken using anything other than a [[Silk Touch]]-enchanted [[tool]], a [[glowstone]] block drops 2-4 glowstone dust. A [[Fortune]] enchantment increases the chances of higher drops, with Fortune III allowing an average yield of 3.5 glowstone dust per block.
=== Mob loot ===
[[Witch]]es have a chance of dropping 0–6 glowstone dust upon death. This is increased by 3 per level of [[Looting]], for a maximum of 0-15 glowstone dust. <!-- Do not add the blaze as it is in violation of MCW:UPTODATE due to the Legacy Console Edition being discontinued. Any edit that adds the blaze to this section will be immediately reverted. -->
=== Trading ===
{{IN|bedrock}}, journeyman-level cleric [[villager]]s sell one glowstone dust for 4 [[emerald]]s as part of their trades.

The '''Smarter Watch''' was a joke offhand [[item]].
== Usage ==
Smarter watches were "equipped" by having them placed into the offhand slot. Upon equipping, they would display the current time above the hotbar, in minutes and seconds, with one minute of in-game time being 5/6 of a real-time second, and one in-game hour being 5/6 of a real-time minute or 50 seconds.
The smarter watch would also notify the [[player]] of statistics milestones, alongside taken [[damage]], [[item]] specific info, [[crafting]] items and more.{{info needed|What exactly?}}

'''Bookshelves''' are [[blocks]] that improve [[enchanting|enchantments]] applied with an [[enchanting table]] when placed around one, up to a maximum of fifteen bookshelves, at the expense of [[Enchanting/Levels|level]] requirement.
== Obtaining ==
=== Natural generation ===
Bookshelves can generate in village libraries and sometimes village houses.
[[Stronghold]]s may contain up to two libraries, each of which may be single-level or have an upper balcony. These feature some bookshelves arranged in pillars, and more bookshelves arranged in pillars in the walls. Single-level libraries contain 161 bookshelves, while libraries with balconies contain 233.
Bookshelves also naturally generate in certain [[woodland mansion]] rooms.
=== Breaking ===
Bookshelves can be broken fairly easily by hand, but can be broken faster by using an [[axe]]. In either case, they drop 3 books when broken, allowing the reconstruction of the bookshelf with the addition of six wood planks. When broken by an item that is [[enchanted]] with [[Silk Touch]], a bookshelf drops itself.

== Usage ==
=== Enchanting ===
{{main|Enchantment mechanics#Bookshelf placement}}
If an [[enchanting table]] is placed near a bookshelf, glyph [[particles]] fly from the bookshelf toward the enchanting table. Having bookshelves in the proper position near the table allows the table to apply higher-level enchantments.

=== Fuel ===
Bookshelves can be used as a [[fuel]] in [[furnace]]s, smelting 1.5 items per block.
=== Villager ===
Librarian [[villager]]s can interact with bookshelves.

Bookshelf can be placed under [[note block]]s to produce "bass" sounds.

Issues
Issues relating to "Nether Quartz Ore" are maintained on the bug tracker. Report issues there.
Trivia
- Unlike netherrack, fire does not burn indefinitely on nether quartz ore.
- Nether quartz ore has the same blast resistance as other ores, which is more than the quartz block and netherrack combined.
- The texture of Nether Quartz is the same as Netherrack's, but with white streaks added. A similar design is used in the Coal Block, but with black streaks on a stone block.
- Nether Quartz ore was originally planned at Minecon 2013 as an ore that will generate in the Nether to promote Nether exploration. This ore was planned to be either a type of Redstone, or be an ore that will drop an item used in Redstone circuitry see Nether Quartz.
