Getting Started with Vein Mining

Vein Mining is powered by an enchantment, so you apply it to a tool just like any other enchantment:

  1. Get the Vein Mining enchantment from the enchanting table, from enchanted books, or through your usual enchantment sources.
  2. Apply it to a pickaxe (for ores) or an axe (for logs) - whichever tool you want to vein-mine with.
  3. Mine any block that is part of a vein. Every connected block of the same type breaks at once and all of the drops are yours.

An optional activation key lets you decide exactly when vein mining kicks in - for example by holding or releasing a key while you mine - so you can switch between whole-vein and single-block breaking on the fly.
