Are you wondering how to snag some shiny amethyst in Minecraft? Let’s dive into that right now!

So, you’re curious about getting your hands on amethyst in Minecraft, huh? Well, you’re in luck because we’ve got the scoop!

Quick Answer: The Amethyst Hunt

First off, to find amethyst in Minecraft, you need to explore. Amethyst can be found in underground caves specifically in amethyst geodes. These geodes are big, spherical structures divided into layers, with an outer layer of smooth basalt, a middle layer of calcite, and an inner layer filled with amethyst blocks and buds.

These mystical amethyst geodes are not just anywhere though. You’ll usually find them close to the overworld’s bedrock levels. Oh, and bring a pickaxe! Iron or anything better will let you collect amethyst shards from the amethyst clusters.
