For the music disc by the same name, see Music Discs. Blocks are standard-sized block units, whose appearances differ from block to block. They make up the landscape of the Minecraft world and are used in many of the game's mechanics. Show DescriptionCobblestone. Wooden Planks. Coarse Dirt. Each cube is unique and offers the player building materials, utilities, decoration, and crafting. For example, an emerald block functions as both a building material and compact means of storing emeralds. Blocks are place-able, unlike most other objects (without the use of an item frame). They make up the in-game environments and can be collected, placed, and used in many different ways. Some blocks spawn naturally, such as dirt or stone while other blocks, such as bricks and redstone lamps, must be crafted by a player. Logs, for example, is one of the more useful blocks, due to its widespread use and requirement in many crafting recipes. All player-made structures are created by using multiple blocks of one, or several different varieties. Certain blocks have special uses. For example, Jack o' Lantern, glowstone, and sea lanterns can be used to light underwater areas, because they cannot be extinguished by water. unlike torches, that would be washed out when placed in water. There are three different transparency levels by which blocks can be classified:
Most transparent/translucent blocks, can't have torches placed on them. The face of a block is 16x16 pixels, and each block is proportionately one cubic meter.[1] Most blocks are static, although water, lava, portal, and fire blocks have a shifting pattern. While the default texture pack's textures have 16x16 block faces, there are texture packs with 32x32 or even 64x64 textures. These texture packs often require a mod, but usually, they only require the default Minecraft resource pack. Naturally-generated BlocksA Pig standing on Coal Ore. The following is a list of many blocks that generate naturally Minecraft worlds. Entries marked with a D require additional data values to entirely define the block in a Minecraft world. Entries marked with an I have a different ID as an inventory item. Entries marked with a B require additional inventory data to fully define the inventory item. Entries marked with a T have tile entities associated with them to store additional data. Items with IDs in red cannot be legitimately obtained by a player in the game. They can only be obtained by "hacking" (Such as using an inventory editor) or while in multiplayer servers, or by using the /give command. Items available only in Creative mode are in blue. Items only obtainable through the Silk Touch enchantment in Survival Mode are in green. The OverworldMycelium is a very rare block considering that it can only be found in one biome, and can only be collected with Silk Touch. Below is a list of blocks that can be obtained in the Overworld .

There are over 150 different types of blocks in Minecraft, including environmental features like air and water, which cannot be obtained, various types of wood, various colors of wool, various, slabs, stairs, utility blocks, and the list goes on. New blocks are typically added to one or more versions of Minecraft every few months. Ground view of extremely tall building made of blocks In a standard, randomly-generated world, one can find air, stone, grass, snow, dirt, water, water source, lava, lava source, sand, sandstone, gravel, gold ore, iron ore, diamond ore, Redstone ore, lapis lazuli ore, clay block, coal ore, bedrock, ice, wood, birch wood, wooden planks, etc. In abandoned mineshafts, oak/dark oak wood, stone, rails, and various exposed ores can be found. Leaves, cacti, sugar cane, vines, pumpkins, dandelions, poppies, brown and red mushrooms, dead bushes, shrubs, and tall grass can all be found exploring the Overworld. In dungeons, one can also find cobblestone, mossy cobblestone, a monster spawner, and chests. However, cobblestone is most often obtained by the player by mining stone and chests are crafted, making this a unique structure. Cobblestone, wooden planks, fences, pressure plates, bookshelves, crafting tables, stairs, torches, black wool, glass panes, iron bars, lava, chests, and furnaces can also be found in the randomly-generated villages. Stone bricks, mossy stone bricks, cracked stone bricks, iron bars, end portal frames, monster spawners, bookshelves, wooden planks, fences, chests, and cobwebs can be found in the strongholds and abandoned mineshafts also added in Beta 1.8. Obsidian can be found naturally but is not considered a part of a random generation. Instead, it's created when a naturally-occurring lava source block comes in contact with water. Cobblestone can also be found naturally in the same circumstances as obsidian but is formed when moving lava comes into contact with water . Strongholds are also partially built of cobblestone. Players can craft a variety of blocks that are not naturally found in the world, such as crafting tables, bookshelves, and furnaces, using their 4x4 personal crafting grid. Redstone , diamond , gold, and lapis lazuli can be found in the lower areas of maps. Netherrack, glowstone, gravel, soul sand, Nether brick, Nether brick fence, Nether brick stairs, and Nether wart can be found in the Nether, which a player can only reach via a Nether portal. End stone, bedrock, and obsidian can be found in the End, which can only be reached via an End portal. Torches, an End portal, an End gateway, and a dragon egg are generated after a player kills the Ender Dragon. The Pocket Edition had three unique blocks: the cyan flower, Nether reactor core, and glowing obsidian, however, these blocks are no longer in the game. Trivia
