How do I get Minecraft Amethyst Shards and how to use Them

Minecraft Amethyst Shards are obtained by mining clusters of amethyst that are found in geodes. These Shards can be used for fancy decorations or as crafting resources to make Spyglasses as well as Tinted Glass. If you're looking to search for the purple crystal shards you'll need to learn the specifics of where to locate Amethyst Geodes and how to maximize your shard gains. Here's what you should learn about mining and finding Amethyst Shards in Minecraft, as well as what you can do with them.



Where can I find Amethyst Geodes for Minecraft?



It's the easiest option to go underground and begin mining in Minecraft to find an Amethyst Geode. It's not necessary to go very deep, however: Amethyst geodes can spawn between Y-level 64 and Y-level 30. Geodes are not that hard to spot , since they're massive and often cracked, meaning that you may see a faint glowing light from some distance.



Keep an eye out for smooth basalt when mining. This is the dark layer of an amethyst Geode. You can cut through this layer to discover Calcite. Then, continue to discover amethyst. You'll find Blocks of Amethyst and Budding Amethyst as well as Amethyst Buds and Amethyst Clusters. Let's see which one is which:



How to obtain Amethyst Shards from Minecraft using Amethyst Clusters



Minecraft Netherite is very valuable, but it is a lot more difficult to find Amesthyst Shards!



Amethyst Shards can be dropped from growing amethyst clusters. Launcher They are located in Amethyst Geodes. Amethyst clusters can be mined to earn Minecraft AmethystShards in exchange, which can be used to create specific items.



It is essential to only mine fully grown ones, as the smaller Minecraft Amethyst buds don't yield any Amethyst Shards. An Amethyst Bud goes through three stages before becoming an Amethyst Cluster. Look at the image above to see how you can distinguish them!



Fully formed Amethyst clusters drop two Minecraft Amethyst Shards when broken using any other tool, and four when mined with the use of a pickaxe. The number of Amethyst Shards that drop can be further increased with the Fortune enchantment. If you wish to collect the cluster itself, use a pickaxe with the Silk Touch enchantment.



Budding Amethyst blocks are the most ideal location to grow Minecraft Amethyst Clusters or Buds. They can be identified by the cross-shape that is visible on their sides. You can't mine Budding Amethyst, but you can come back to find newly-spawned Amethyst buds. The other amethyst-based solid block is referred to as"Block of Amethyst" and can be mined with a pickaxe. It is purely decorative, and cannot grow Amethyst Buds. You can make use of Amethyst Shards to build more Minecraft Blocks of Amethyst if you want to use them as a building material.



You can make anything with Minecraft Amethyst Shards



In addition to being a fashionable new building material, Amethyst Shards may be used to create the following items:



Spyglass: One Amethyst Shard placed on top of two copper ingots creates Spyglass. Spyglass. Spyglasses can be used to zoom in on distant objects. Tinted Glass: One block of glass with an Amethyst Shard above, below and on either side will create two blocks of Tinted Glass. Tinted Glass is a building material that blocks out all light (but you can still see through it). It can't suffocate mobs, however it is able to be used again when it's broken.


Block of Amethyst as mentioned earlier, this is purely decorative. You can make a Block of Amethyst using four Amethyst Shards.


It's time to search for Amethyst Shards to create your dream amethyst house!
