Diamond Tide Block

Quickstart

1. Load into any Overworld world and head underground into the deepslate layer (below roughly Y=0).
2. Look for Diamond Tide Ore — it has the appearance of deepslate diamond ore.
3. Mine it with an iron pickaxe or better.
4. Right-clicking the ore with any item (or your empty hand) instantly gives you a full stack of 64 diamonds. If your inventory is full, the diamonds drop at your feet.

You can also craft a Diamond Tide Ore block to place wherever you like:

Overview

Diamond Tide Block adds a single new ore — Diamond Tide Ore — that generates naturally in the deepslate layers of the Overworld. Each 500×500 block region of the world has a 75% chance to contain exactly one Diamond Tide vein, placed at a random position within that region. When you interact with the ore, it rewards you with an enormous payload of diamonds all at once.

What It Adds

The block also appears in the Building Blocks creative tab so you can access it without commands.

How To Use

Finding It Naturally

Diamond Tide Ore spawns underground in deepslate zones (roughly Y=−64 to Y=0). Because each 500-block region contains at most one vein, the ore is rare but guaranteed to exist somewhere nearby. Explore deep caves or strip-mine in the deepslate layer to locate it.

Getting Your Diamonds

Once you find a Diamond Tide Ore block, right-click it (use/interact key, default Right Mouse Button) while holding any item or nothing at all. You will immediately receive 64 diamonds added to your inventory. If your inventory has no room, the full stack drops as a ground item in front of you.

You can also simply mine the block with an iron pickaxe or better — it drops itself as an item, which you can place elsewhere and interact with later.

Crafting the Block

If you want to create Diamond Tide Ore blocks rather than hunting for them underground, you can craft them:

Place the crafted block anywhere and right-click it to collect 64 diamonds on demand.

Abilities And Mechanics

• Right-click interaction is the primary way to use the ore. No mining required — just look at the block and interact with it.
• Gives exactly 64 diamonds per interaction, going directly into your inventory or dropping if full.
• The block itself does not break when you interact with it this way, making a crafted copy a reusable diamond source.
• Tool requirement mirrors deepslate diamond ore: iron pickaxe minimum.

Progression And Strategy

• Early game: Locate a natural Diamond Tide Ore vein in the deepslate layer as soon as you have an iron pickaxe. A single right-click hands you 64 diamonds — enough to gear up entirely in diamond equipment instantly.
• Crafting route: If you already have diamonds and a beacon (end-game items), crafting the block gives you a permanent, placeable source of diamonds you can interact with repeatedly.
• Exploration tip: Because only one vein can appear per 500-block region and the chance is 75%, you are never more than a few hundred blocks from a potential ore. Systematic caving in the deepslate layer is the fastest natural approach.
