??Mining

?? ? Diamond ore mined using an iron pickaxe or stronger drops a single diamond. If mined by any other tool, it drops nothing. If the pickaxe is enchanted with Fortune, it can drop an extra diamond per level of Fortune, allowing for a maximum of 4 with Fortune III. If the ore is mined using a pickaxe enchanted with Silk Touch, it drops an ore block rather than a diamond. The ore is found at level 15 or lower, most commonly Between 5 and 12. Levels 11-12 are the preferred levels to mine at as they contain less lava than levels 5-10.
