💎 Ultimate Diamond Mining Tips! 💎

What’s the best way to find diamonds in Minecraft well the clue is it’s x-ray but I have some legit methods many that you don’t have a clue about that I’m going to show you in this video to find diamonds fast without cheats now you’re probably wondering why when I look up

I’m just down a massive rabbit hole that’s because I’ve dug straight down and that’s a tip that you shouldn’t follow don’t dig straight down you’ve probably seen a million videos recommending you not to do that but the reason I’m doing it is if we press F3 on

Minecraft you can see we have the coordinate values now where it says XYZ you can see I’m in – 53 so I’m at level y – 53 now the reason I’m here is because this is a good level which is recommended for safety from lava now you

Can go even deeper from – 53 all the way down to – 59 and these are good levels these are the perfect levels to find diamonds in but the lower you go below y – 53 the danger increases from falling into a lava pool now as we dig closer to

Bedrock in Minecraft diamonds become even more more commonly distributed so the closer we are to the very bottom of the earth we have a more abundance of diamonds but with that we have lava and we also have a ton of pesy Bedrock which we can’t mine which sometimes blocks the

Diamonds now if for use x-ray you can see we’re surrounded by quite a few diamonds especially in this laay which I mentioned you can see there’s huge clusters of diamonds really close to me at these levels now I’ve created some steps here and we’re now at y – 54 now

From y – 54 down to – 58 this is a great level to start strip mining so strip mining if anyone doesn’t know is just a process of just mining in a straight line in hopes of uncovering diamonds which if we use x-ray we would actually

Hit them pretty close right at the end there there’s some diamonds so we don’t even have to mine that far from here to actually hit some so it does work at these levels trust me next up is this simple cave exploration strategy so we want to go explore caves underground but

We want to make sure that we actually avoid mobs and potential dangers like lava now this is basically going until we find ores just inside or CL clusters or veins within the walls of the caves you can employ any kind of mining technique you want in here this is

Basically using the natural generation to our advantage because we’ve already got crevices mapped out because we’re actually in cave so we don’t need to mine out any pockets in the ground and you can find huge big open mouths like these and usually when you find lava or Redstone there’ll be some Diamond nearby

For an example there’s a lava pool here so that means that diamonds are at least somewhere around here so you would want to go in the cave find lava and then just mine as many pockets of Earth as you can until hopefully you can actually reveal some diamonds which may take a

While but if you’re very patient then you’ll find some the only challenge you’re going to have though is there going to be Lava which means it’s going to be harder to mine it and it’s going to be really easy to die especially if you don’t have netherite which you

Probably won’t if you trying to find Diamond Oil cuz if you had netherite let’s be honest diamonds aren’t so special you can see here the lava is leaking in so I have to be super careful and then we can make our Great Escape and unfortunately leave some diamonds

There left on the table next up is the branch mining technique so you want to basically create an entry point and then also create perpendicular tunnels adjacent to it by leaving a two Gap space I’m going to show you how to do that it’s actually quite complex but

It’s very effective so as you can see behind me we have quite a questionable setup this is quite complex but bear with me so as you can see I’ve made this setup here which has a few different entry points in fact we have six different borrows to mine now what’s

Interesting is this is just set up in a random cave to show you as an example but you want to stop this on the topmost layer of bedrocks so it’s the most effective and you basically just want to begin on the top tunnels you first begin

The central most tunnel and then you dig these other tunnels which branch out from the side and then you just strip mine forward with all of them and that basically covers as much ground as possible next up is the brand new ancient cities now these are found in

Deep dark biomes and these ancient cities offer a chance to find not only Diamond deposits on the walls the floors and the general terrain around them also in some key places like chests which spawn as loot around the structure’s location so as you can see this Tower

Here if we go up it for an example and we crawl all the way to the top where there should be some chests as you can see these chests are kind of hard to get to sometimes because the turf around them is broken if we enter some of the

Chest there’s various loot you’ll find things like bottle of enchanting music discs books random resources but sometimes you can also find Diamond in them but you do have these blocks around here which can summon the warden these are particularly probably one of the most riskiest methods to find diamond

But if you’re lucky you’ll also find not only Diamond but also diamond armor pieces like this Enchanted one over here the next mining technique is one that’s become super popular recently and that’s the Moss mining technique so you may already notice we’ve summoned the warden

So I’m going to get out of here but these deep dark blocks we can actually mine really quickly with our iron H which sometimes can actually help to expose all deposits as you can see there is actually Diamond behind here but unfortunately we’ve got to face the wall

Water and then we can just mine the diamond so basically with this method you just place down moss and then use bone meal and it’ll infect all the blocks around it then you can just continuously just keep using bone meal on this and expanding it and then you

Can use the iron ho to really quickly break the Moss and just keep redoing this method and sometimes it’ll replace some of the blocks like Stone and it’ll actually expose diamond for an example what it’s just done here which is behind this block over here so now we’ve

Basically just got oursel a diamond vein just by doing Moss mining so you just spreading moss and then breaking it real quick with I ho and then eventually you can find diamonds but it may be quite time consuming to actually get that result and then of course we come back

To Lava pools you want to make sure you check lava Pools by draining them with a bucket so you can clear the lava around and then mining around the pool to actually see if there’s any diamonds around it now this is a really tiny pool so as you can see there’s not really

Much ground for us to cover but there is actually diamonds around here now a lot of pools will have diamonds nearby because they just spawn at that level as long as you’re in those w levels that I told you about at the start of the video you’re usually going to find diamonds

Now I have tons of buckets here so I can just literally just keep draining the lava but this is almost like an Infinite Source but whilst I keep draining it then I can see what’s underneath it temporarily also if I show you on the X-ray you can see there is actually

Quite a lot of diamonds nearby these pools even if they’re not directly below them next up is villagers so sometimes you might be lucky enough if you find a blacksmith or a weapon Smith inside the Smith buildings you can sometimes find diamonds which are actually hidden inside the chest but it really depends

On your village Generation seed and of course this just generally goes with villagers as a whole if you actually trade with villagers and you have a good reputation with them and they don’t hate you then sometimes you can access trades that actually offer diamonds too next up

Is a pretty obvious one that’s just literally enchanting your pickaxe with Fortune so basically if we enchant it with Fortune This Will basically increase the diamond yield from all so we actually get more from it if we enchant one with silk touch too then we can just directly mine the diamond

Itself so silk touch we can pick up the diamond block but then we have to smelt it and then with Fortune you can see we get more diamonds so sometimes we might get two or three diamonds from each cluster instead of one which obviously allows us to collect diamonds way

Quicker and then the last one is none other than actually utilizing x-ray which I actually have been using sparingly a few times in this video just to show you as an example how many diamonds are spawning around the areas and through using the methods I’ve showed you in this video but now I’m

Just going to show you X-ray now I wouldn’t recommend cheating on multiplayer but if you have the chance to use it or if you’re on single player x-ray is powerful and if you do want to cheat let’s be honest it’s better than any of these methods so I had to show it

So X-Ray when we press X shows us every single or so you can see literally hundreds if not thousands of diamond veins just surrounding me right now which just goes to show how much diamonds there are that actually genuinely generate in the overw world it’s pretty crazy but what’s pretty cool

Though is you can see I have the options in the top left which shows me like the x y and z Z values where I am without pressing F3 so we can view those anyway and also if we press X it will toggle normal X-ray and if we press C we can go

Into KF finder mode and V lets Zoom as well so we can go into x-ray zoom and just see which ores are in the distance which is pretty cool and if we press J we can actually go into this config Editor to actually edit which blocks

Show in x-ray mode and which one show in the cave finder mode now the cool thing about this mod too is we also have a full bright key so when it’s dark and kind of spooky we can just go in full bright mode and then press X and ooh

Look I’m in a cave I happen to have found diamonds definitely not cheating at all and then we can just go we can mine this diamond vein and since we have that fortune enchantment we can mine all of these diamonds and get a whole ton of them so obviously x-ray is the most

Overpowered technique so I kind of had to show it right so what is the best mining technique to find diamonds well it’s clearly x-ray what’s the best vanilla technique well that’s up to you and how effective the method is when you use it now you can choose any one of

These and then report back to me in the comments comments and tell me how effective you were and also tell me your methods cuz I know that I haven’t included every single method to find diamonds and there’s probably some better ones which I didn’t cover so

Please let me know about those in the comment section down below and since this was a vanilla video we didn’t cover all the other modded methods like using a quarry on BuildCraft or a mining drill on industrial craft to find ores if you want me to do a version with mods let me

Know too and make sure to like the video and also subscribe for more videos like this and Minecraft mod videos and I’ll see you real soon
