Obtaining[edit]
Budding amethysts can currently only be obtained via the Creative inventory or with commands, as they are unobtainable by Survival means, even using a tool enchanted with Silk Touch.
Breaking[edit]
Budding amethyst cannot be obtained when mined, even using a tool enchanted with Silk Touch. It will break immediately if pushed by a piston or sticky piston, and cannot be pulled by sticky pistons.

Natural generation[edit]
Budding amethyst generates naturally as part of amethyst geodes replacing some blocks of amethyst in the innermost layer of the geode.
Usage[edit]
Each time budding amethyst receives a random tick, the chance is similar to the growth of cocoa pods with a budding amethyst having a 20% chance of creating amethyst clusters on any of its sides as long as that particular side is only covered in air or water. If there is already an amethyst bud on that particular side, the bud will instead reach its next growth stage.
Sound[edit]
Uniquely among other blocks a budding amethyst makes a quiet overlay sound when generally interacted with as well as its block breaking sound when hit with a projectile.

History[edit]
May 21, 2009 | Notch mentioned crystal blocks as a potential block type which can be found in the underground. | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
October 3, 2020 | Amethyst-related blocks are mentioned at Minecraft Live 2020. It was mentioned that, like with spawners, blocks that generate amethysts would not be movable by survival means, forcing players to build farms in situ for these resources. | ||||

Trivia[edit]
- JAPPA has said the reasoning for the 'x' pattern on the block is because "the plane-crystals grow out of it"[1]
