Trivia

  • One cavern-network underground in a world will probably hold about 5 Emerald Ore blocks each, but separately; rarely in veins.
  • Emerald Ore is rarer than Emeralds because players can trade with Villagers to get Emeralds.
  • Ruby ore was replaced by emerald ore in 12w21a, but it was still colored red.
    • This was changed to green as of snapshot 12w21b.
  • The fact that Emerald Ore can be found in the Extreme Hills Biome is a possible reference to the area "Emerald Hills Zone" in Sonic the Hedgehog 2.
  • Emeralds were in early versions of Pocket Edition, but were removed for having no use. They were implemented again in 0.9.0.
  • Emerald ore is the rarest ore in Minecraft due to only being found in one biome type.

Natural generation

Emerald ore is only generated in extreme hills A river bisecting a jungle biome. At the top right is a forest. A river running through a mesa biome with mesa plateaus, with a savanna biome in the bottom right. “ In case you minecraft biomes (which actually contain more emerald ore chunks than diamond ore chunks). Due to the nature of the generation algorithm, it may be found a short distance into adjacent biomes, but always within the same chunk as an extreme hills biome, for example in river biomes which cross through them. It attempts to generate 3-8 times per each chunk, generating anywhere between layers 4 and 32, meaning it can occur as high up as gold Gold Ore Transparency No Luminance No Blast resistance 15 Tool Renewable No Stackable Yes (64) Flammable No Experience Smelted: 1 Drops Itself Data value dec: 14 hex: E bin: 1110 Name gold_ore See the unprocessed minecraft can.

In a world there are about 0.2 emerald ores per chunk. It will only generate in locations that would have otherwise been stone - it is thus possible for as few as 0 to 2 emeralds to generate in a chunk. Found as individual blocks, rather than veins, it can be encountered more commonly than gold, which has a similar range.

For other editions, see minecraft Emerald ore would have no longer generated naturally. This was due to the large number of complaints by users about emerald ore`s rarity, despite Jeb`s wishes for it to only be a "nice find." If this change had occurred, it would have still been available in the Creative mode menu. Be that as it may, Jeb eventually decided against it and added emerald ore back into natural generation after more community response. Jeb later decided to keep emeralds spawning as he thought it would be a "nice surprise"; Emerald ore now only generates in veins of 1. Because of this, it is much more practical to obtain emeralds through trading.
