Ancient Debris

1Block states
YesItem form

Ancient Debris is a block in Minecraft. It is mined with a pickaxe, and the tool must be diamond or better, otherwise the block drops nothing. When broken, it drops itself.

Players use Ancient Debris as an ingredient, since it appears in two crafting recipes. Collecting it means bringing a suitable pickaxe and then carrying the dropped blocks off to be used in those recipes.

Natural generation

Biomes whose own feature list places this block, followed from worldgen/biome through placed_feature to feature. Blocks that the terrain itself is made of (stone, dirt, deepslate) come from the surface rules instead and are not listed here.

Placed by the worldgen features ore_ancient_debris_large, ore_ancient_debris_small.

Advancements

Advancements whose own criteria name this block. Recipe-unlock entries are left out — they never appear on the player’s Advancements screen.
