The Deepslate Crystal Core is the central block of a Type Gem crystal formation. It grows attached Type Gems into Type Gem Clusters, which eventually mature into Type Gem Blocks.

Natural Generation

Deepslate Crystal Cores generate as part of underground Type Gem crystal formations naturally found in air-exposed Deepslate caves throughout the Overworld.

Propagation

The Deepslate Crystal Core periodically grows attached Type Gems into Type Gem Clusters, which can eventually blossom into Type Gem Blocks.

A single Deepslate Crystal Core can support a maximum of 7 connected Type Gem Blocks.

Growth only occurs when there is sufficient adjacent air space for new crystal clusters to form.

Obtaining

Mining

Deepslate Crystal Cores can be mined using an Iron Pickaxe or better.

Unlike most naturally generated growth blocks, the core drops itself when mined, allowing it to be collected and placed elsewhere.

Usage

Growing Type Gems

Players can right-click a Type Gem on a placed Deepslate Crystal Core to plant a crystal formation. The resulting formation grows over time using the same mechanics as naturally generated formations.
