Block of Netherite is a mineral block that is created using Netherite Ingots.
Obtaining[]
It can be obtained either by mining it with a diamond or netherite pickaxe or by placing 9 netherite ingots in a crafting table.
Usage[]
Netherite blocks have a blast resistance of 6,000 (same as obsidian), meaning they cannot be blown up except by the Wither's spawning explosion or by a blue wither skull. It can be used to help carry Netherite ingots much like how blocks of diamonds can be used to store diamonds. As of snapshot 20w07a, Netherite can power beacons.

Trivia[]
- It costs 9 netherite ingots, meaning that 36 gold ingots and 36 Netherite Scraps are used in the crafting process which makes this the most expensive mineral block in the game.
