Ore Generation

  • Overworld Gems: Typically spawn between Y levels -64 and 48. They are often biome-specific, meaning certain gems only appear in specific climates.
  • Nether Gems: Found throughout the Nether, often embedded in Netherrack. Black Diamonds are the rarest, spawning at lower altitudes.
  • End Gems: Found on the outer islands of the End. White Diamonds are found deep within the End stone islands.
